Explanation

Spontaneous vaginal delivery is a term used in medicine to describe a natural birth process. This means that the baby is born through the mother's birth canal without the need for medical interventions like a C-section (surgery). The process begins naturally when the mother goes into labor, and the baby is delivered under the force of the mother's contractions and pushing efforts. It's the most common type of childbirth.
