Answer to Question 1

In the first stage of labor, the cervix dilates to allow passage of the baby's head. In
the second stage of labor, the baby's head moves through the vagina and then
emerges completely. Birth occurs during the second stage of labor.

Answer to Question 2

Most students will probably note that this information is the beginning of the child's
health record and alerts the pediatrician and the preschool to potential early
problems. Many circumstances that affect development and birth history are among
those things the pediatrician and the preschool hope to learn.
