Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Failure to progress (when labor stalls and the cervix fails to dilate) and breech presentation (when the baby is positioned feet-first rather than head-first) are two common complications of the birth process.

Answer: D
 Maternal heart stress can occur during birth due to the physical demands of labor and delivery. It can lead to complications such as high blood pressure, heart failure, and pulmonary embolism.

B and C are not common complications of the birth process. An inverted infant is a rare occurrence when the baby is born upside down, and hormonal stress is not a recognized complication of childbirth. Ineffective epidural, while it can occur, is not a common complication.
