Are there any signs that could indicate a complication or the need for medical intervention during labor?

Thank you for your question, The response to this can be quite broad ranging and dependent on your individual pregnancy profile and risk factors. In pregnancy, and especially during the active phase of labour, there can be maternal complications as well as foetal complications. Both must be taken into account when considering the need for medical intervention. I suggest that you ask your healthcare professional who can give you a more targeted response based on your individualised risk profile of both mother and baby. That being said, this is the reason why it is advisable for you to head to the hospital for closer monitoring once you are in active labour, so that parameters of both mother and child can be actively monitored via frequent physical examinations, as well as monitoring of the vital signs of both mother and baby.
