March 14 2024- The passage describes a fictionalized scene of a woman named Anna in active labor at a midwife-led unit. She progresses through labor with her body movements and transitions into the birthing pool guided by the midwife. After a short time in the water, she delivers her baby with support from her partner and the midwife. The baby’s first cry signals a successful delivery, and the midwife prepares to start the birth register. The process involves monitoring the baby’s heartbeat and the woman’s vital signs regularly during labor.
