49
Q

in first stage of labor, what phase is this?
-The latent or preparatory phase begins at the onset of regularly perceived uterine contractions and ends when rapid cervical dilatation begins.

Latent phase

50
Q

in first stage of labor, what phase is this?
-During the active phase of labor, cervical dilatation occurs more rapidly, increasing from 4 to 7 cm.

A

Active phase

51
Q

in first stage of labor, what phase is this?
