How does the body know when to give birth?

198 views

Does the baby/foetus give a signal that it’s ready/developed enough, or does the mother’s body just call it at some point without any input from the foetus? Or is it a ‘conversation’ between the two?

What I gathered from our antenatal classes is that we don’t really know. We know how to artificially induce labour and which chemicals do what, kinda, mostly, but we are also pretty certain we don’t have the root cause of why and when this happens nailed down.
