INTRODUCTION
Pregnancy is the state of carrying a developing embryo or fetus within the female body.
This condition is confirmed through a blood test, urine test, ultrasound, detection of fetal
heartbeat. It lasts about 40 weeks and can be measured from a woman’s last menstrual period.
(Shiel, 2018) Healthcare providers refer to three segments of pregnancy called trimester. In each
trimester, the fetus will meet specific developmental milestones. For the first trimester, it lasts
for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and is crucial for the baby’s development. At conception, the
egg and sperm combine to form a zygote, which will implant in the uterine wall, all of the major
organs and structures begin to form. During the first trimester, the woman may experience many
changes such as morning sickness or nausea at 6-8 weeks. For the second trimester, it lasts
between week 13 and 26 of pregnancy. In addition to the major structures and organs, other
important parts of the body will also form during the second trimester. Braxton-Hicks
contractions may start toward the end of the second trimester. Lastly, the third trimester lasts
from week 27 until delivery which is usually around week 40. As the woman gets closer to the
delivery, the baby should turn into a head down position to make birth easier. Anxiety about
delivery and parenthood are also common toward the end of pregnancy. (NICHD, 2016)
In 2016, a total of 1,731,289 live births was registered which is equivalent to a crude
birth rate (CBR) of 16.8 or about 17 births per thousand population.
More males (903,694 or 52.0%) were born than females (827,595 or 48.0%) which
resulted in a sex ratio of 109 males per 100 females.
On the average, there were about 4,730 babies born daily or about 197 babies born per
hour or approximately three babies born per minute.
Almost half (851,088 or 49.2%) of the total registered live births in 2016 were born out
of wedlock. The three regions that recorded the highest number of illegitimate children born in
2016 by usual residence of mother were CALABARZON (135,405), NCR (131,670) and Central
Luzon (92,867).
Normal labor is defined as the gradual subjugation and dilatation of the uterine cervix as
a result of rhythmic uterine contractions leading to the expulsion of the products of conception:
the delivery of the fetus, membranes, umbilical cord, and placenta. Laboring cannot be that easy;
thereby implicating that there are processes and stages to be undertaken to achieve spontaneous
delivery through which obstetrics have divided labor into four stages thereby explaining this
continuous process. (Chinweuba, 2018)
Stage I is usually the longest part of labor, begin with regular uterine contraction and
ends with complete cervical dilatation at 10cm.
Stage II lasts for three or more hours. However, the length of this stage depends upon the
mother’s position. This stage ends with the expulsion of the fetus.
Stage III focuses on the expulsion of the placenta from the mother. Placenta exclusion is
easier than delivery of the baby because it includes no bones, and this is during this stage that the
baby is placed on top of mother’s womb.
Stage IV does not include any expulsion of conception products for this stage as this is
generally accepted as postpartum juncture. This phase is from the placental delivery to full
recovery of the mother.
Normal Spontaneous Delivery is a natural process that usually does not require
significant medical intervention unlike Caesarean Delivery which involves surgical procedure
(incisions in the abdomen and uterus) to deliver the baby. During normal/vaginal delivery the
primary focus is on how and in which position will the mother be comfortable delivering the
baby. The mother can lead the whole process of labor and delivery. The doctor and attending
nurse aid the mother while being alert for any kind of emergencies. (Berghella, 2018)
The labor and birth process is always accompanied by pain; several options for pain
control are available, ranging from intramuscular or intravenous doses of narcotics; for example,
general anesthesia.

Our overview of the reproductive system begins at the external genital area – or vulva –
which runs from the pubic area downward to the anus. The mons pubis is a rounded mass of
fatty tissue that covers the pubic bone which is covered by pubic hair during puberty. The mons
pubis contains sebaceous gland that releases substances that are involved in pheromones (sexual
attraction). The two folds of fatty, fleshy tissue surround the entrance to the vagina and urinary
opening: the labia majora, or outer folds that enclose and protect the other external genital
organs and the labia minora, or inner fold that lie just inside the labia majora and surround the
openings to the vagina and urethra. The clitoris, a very sensitive organ for sexual stimulation and
can become erect that can result in an orgasm. The urethral orifice, which carries urine from the
bladder to the outside located under the clitoris and above the vaginal opening. The vaginal
opening is the entryway for the penis during sexual intercourse and the exit of blood during
menstruation and for the baby during birth. The hymen, a thin membrane protecting the entrance
of the vagina, stretches when you insert a tampon or have sexual intercourse. (Jessica E.
McLaughlin & Jennifer Knudtson, 2019)
The Uterus
The uterus is a hollow, muscular, pear-shaped organ located in the lower pelvis posterior
to the bladder and anterior to the rectum. In a non-pregnant state, it weighs approximately 60g.
The function of the uterus is to receive the ovum from the fallopian tube; provide a place for
implantation and nourishment; furnish protection to a growing fetus; and, at maturity of the fetus,
expel it to the woman’s body.
Anatomically, the uterus consists of three divisions: the corpus, the isthmus and the
cervix. The corpus, uppermost part and forms the bulk of the organ. The portion of the uterus
between the points of attachment of the fallopian tube is termed the fundus. During pregnancy,
the corpus is the portion of the structure that expands to contain the growing fetus. The fundus is
the portion that can be palpated abdominally to determine the amount of uterine growth during
pregnancy, to measure the force of uterine contractions during labor, and to assess that the uterus
is returning to its non-pregnant state. The isthmus is the short segment between the body and
cervix. During pregnancy, this portion also enlarges greatly to aid in accommodating the
growing fetus. The cervix is the lowest part of the uterus. Its central cavity is termed the cervical
canal. The opening of the canal at the junction of the cervix and isthmus is the internal cervical
os; the distal opening of the vagina is the external cervical os.
The Vagina
The vagina is a hollow, musculomembranous canal located posterior to the bladder and
anterior to the rectum. It extends from the cervix of the uterus to the external vulva. Its function
is to act as the organ of intercourse and to convey sperm to the cervix. With childbirth, it expands
to serve as the birth canal.
During the first half of menstrual cycle, the level of estrogen on the 3rd day is low. It will
stimulate the hypothalamus to release follicle stimulating hormone releasing factor (FSHRF).
After that, FSHRF stimulates anterior pituitary gland to release follicle stimulating hormone
(FSH). This hormone will help oocyte to mature. The FSH stimulates the ovary to release
estrogen, then estrogen converts the follicle from the ovary to Graafian Follicle (GF) and it
causes the thickening of the endometrium of uterus particularly myometrium.
On the 13th day of menstruation the level of estrogen become high and the level of
progesterone is low, it starts the second half of menstruation that will cause stimulation to the
hypothalamus to release luteinizing hormone releasing factor (LHRF). This hormone stimulates
the anterior pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone (LH). High level of LH stimulates the
ovary to release progesterone & it also stimulates ovulation. This hormone, progesterone –
converts Graafian follicle into corpus luteum that has a lifespan of 2 weeks. Progesterone also
stimulates the uterus to increase vascularity of endometrium (capillaries gives water, glucose,
oxygen, and amino acid) causing the uterus being fully nourished.
After ovulation, if there is sexual intercourse and fertilization, the woman will expect not
to have her menstrual cycle for the next month. If pregnancy occurs, the corpus luteum’s life
span will extend from 2 weeks to 2 months. After 2 months, corpus luteum cannot support the
growing fetus anymore, so placenta will replace it up to 9th month of the pregnancy. During the
9th month, placenta is already degenerating and aging, it can’t prevent uterine contraction
anymore so the woman is ready for labor and delivery. If no sexual intercourse happen, the
corpus luteum will not extend its life, it will go back to its original form, which is the follicle.
Low estrogen and low progesterone will suggest the uterus to contract and shed off.
