Mitral insufficiency can be caused by dilation of the left heart, often a consequence of heart failure. In these cases the left ventricle of the heart becomes enlarged and causes displacement of the attached papillary muscles, which control the mitral valve.
Inducing labor can take a few hours or as long as 2 or 3 days. It depends on how your body responds to your treatment. Inducing labor may take longer if youâre pregnant for the first time or if your baby is less than 37 weeks.
But, babies follow their own time-table. They come out only when they feel they are ready to do so. The minimum time period a baby spends inside its mother's womb is 38 weeks, but it can even prolong up to 42 weeks. Thus, a baby is delivered anytime between the 38th to 42nd week of pregnancy. Gynecologists often give a fixed date for the delivery, however, hardly 3-5% of women deliver exactly on their due dates.
