Long labour - what does this mean

Long labour occurs when the active phase of labour lasts longer than 12 hours for a first-time mother or 8 hours for a mother who has previously given birth. it is usually caused by inadequate uterine contractions, the baby's position in the birth canal, or a combination of both.

What happens during the disease - long labour

Long labour is a condition where labour and delivery is prolonged beyond the normal range. it is usually caused by a combination of factors, such as inadequate uterine contractions, an overly large baby, or an abnormally positioned baby. other causes may include an abnormally shaped pelvis, a placenta that is not functioning properly, or a cephalopelvic disproportion. all of these factors can lead to an inability of the uterus to fully contract and dilate, leading to an extended labour.
