This 3D medical animation of a baby’s birth shows a time lapse view of labor and delivery during normal vaginal birth in a simplified form with only the mother’s skeletal structures and the baby in the uterus.
Also shown in detail is dilatation (dilation or dilating) and effacement (thinning) of the cervix during childbirth contractions.

Nice little overview.
I can’t stop wondering why the mother is always illustrated lying down. I hope that this will change in the future. Think about it: If women were always illustrated standing/kneeling during birth, it really could change people view of births.
