Scrat [10]

Answer: Transition ( Second stage of labour)

Explanation:

From my personal experience this is the toughest part of childbirth. Contractions are one on top of the other as your cervix dilates to 10 centimetres. You may feel you can no longer cope, or even start trembling most especially in your legs. It’s also normal to feel flushed, overwhelmed and panicky.
