Births refer to the process by which new life is brought into the world. This typically occurs when a baby is delivered from the mother's womb after a period of pregnancy, which usually lasts about nine months in humans. The process can happen naturally or through medical interventions such as cesarean sections.
During a birth, various stages occur, including labor, delivery, and the immediate postnatal period. Healthcare professionals, such as doctors and midwives, often assist in the process to ensure the safety and health of both the mother and the newborn. Births can take place in different settings, including hospitals, birthing centers, or at home.
