Generally, after entering the waiting room, you need to wait until you are ready to receive labor before entering the delivery room, a process that takes about 6-8 hours for primigravid women and 3-4 hours for transient women.
When a woman’s uterine opening reaches two fingers, or when she needs to be induced by oxytocin, or when she suspects that there is a problem with the fetus, such as intrauterine oxygen deprivation and distress, she needs to enter the waiting room.
In the waiting room, the mother can do some exercises to help reduce the pain of contractions, such as slow deep breathing, get out of bed, and can eat some easy-to-digest food to store energy.
After entering the waiting room, when the opening of the uterus of the primigravid woman reaches ten fingers, and the transient woman enters the active phase, she can enter the labor room and begin to give birth. The whole process is about 4-6 hours for a primigravida, and a menstruating woman can usually experience 3-4 hours.
