Normal Delivery

In a vaginal birth, your baby is born through your vagina or birth canal. It's the most preferred and most common way to deliver a baby. A vaginal delivery is the birth of offspring in mammals through the vagina. It is the most common method of childbirth worldwide. It is considered the preferred method of delivery, with lower morbidity and mortality than caesarean sections.

Types of vaginal delivery :

- A spontaneous vaginal delivery (SVD) occurs when a pregnant woman goes into labor without the use of drugs or techniques to induce labor and delivers their baby without forceps, vacuum extraction, or a cesarean section.

- An induced vaginal delivery is a delivery involving labor induction, where drugs or manual techniques are used to initiate labor. Vaginal delivery can be either spontaneous or induced.

- An assisted vaginal delivery (AVD) or instrumental vaginal delivery occurs when a pregnant woman requires the use of special instruments such as forceps or a vacuum extractor to deliver her baby vaginally.
