(A) The signals for parturition originate from the fully developed foetus and the placenta,which induce mild uterine contractions called the foetal ejection reflex.
This reflex triggers the release of $Oxytocin$ from the maternal posterior pituitary gland.
$Oxytocin$ acts on the uterine muscle and causes stronger uterine contractions,which in turn stimulates further secretion of $Oxytocin$.
Simultaneously,the placenta releases $Prostaglandins$,which further enhance uterine contractions.
The stimulatory reflex between the uterine contraction and $Oxytocin$ secretion continues,resulting in stronger and more frequent contractions,leading to the expulsion of the baby out of the uterus through the birth canal.
