This is typically the longest part of labor. For most first-time moms, the first stage of labor will last for around ten to fourteen hours. The First stage is broken up further into three phases. During the early phase, contractions are very light and are 20 minutes or more apart, becoming closer to 5 minutes apart. The active phase is next.
Keep in mind that your health care provider might also use a combination of these methods to induce labor. How long it takes for labor to start depends on how your body responds to the induction techniques. If your cervix needs time to ripen, it might take two days before labor begins. If you simply need a little push, you might be holding your baby in your arms in a matter of hours. Contractions might become stronger and more painful earlier in induced labor than they would in a naturally occurring labor. If relaxation and breathing techniques aren't enough to control the pain, ask for relief. Your health care provider might recommend an epidural block or other options.
