What is precipitate labour? Precipitate labour is the medical term for fast labour. Your labour will be described as precipitate if your baby is born within three hours of your contractions starting (NCCWCH 2008, Sheiner et al 2004). About two in 100 women whose labours have started naturally will have a fast, or precipitate, labour (NCCWCH 2008).
1 Smoking: Any kind of tobacco use increases a mom's risk of PPROM and premature labor. Nicotine causes blood vessels in the uterus to constrict, which can prevent nutrients and oxygen from getting to the baby or contribute to early labor.  Stress: Chronic, high-level psychological stress can cause labor to start early.
