Precipitate labor, also known as rapid labor, happens when the labor and delivery process is very fast, usually lasting less than 3 hours from the start of contractions to the baby’s birth. This can be surprising and intense for both the mother and the medical team. Symptoms of precipitous labor can include extremely intense and frequent contractions, rapid progression of labor, and a strong urge to push. Other signs may involve a sudden and overwhelming sensation of pressure in the pelvis and a feeling that the baby is coming very quickly.

While precipitate labor may seem like a quick and easy way to deliver a baby, it can also pose risks, such as tearing of the birth canal and difficulties for the baby adjusting to the rapid change. It’s important to be aware of the signs of precipitate labor and to seek immediate medical attention if you experience these symptoms to ensure a safe delivery for both the mother and the baby.
