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.
The second stage of labor begins when you're fully dilated and ends with the birth of your baby. This is sometimes referred to as the pushing stage. The third stage begins right after the birth of your baby and ends with the delivery of the placenta. Every pregnancy is different, and there's wide variation in the length of labor. For first-time moms, labor often takes between ten and 20 hours.
