(1) The contractions of the uterus during labor help exercise the fetal lungs, increase the production of surfactant, making the alveoli more easily expandable, and reduce the incidence of respiratory diseases after birth.(2) The contractions of the uterus and the squeezing effect of the birth canal help expel amniotic fluid and mucus from the fetal airways, significantly reducing the rates of newborn asphyxia and pneumonia.
(3) During passage through the birth canal, the fetus's head is compressed, leading to congestion and increased excitability of the brain's respiratory centers, which facilitates the rapid establishment of normal breathing after birth.
