The statement that during stage 2 of labor, the placenta and umbilical cord are delivered is false. The stage 2 of labor begins when the cervix is completely dilated (open), and ends with the birth of the baby. It can last from 20 minutes to 2 hours. The placenta and umbilical cord are delivered in the third stage, which is also called afterbirth.
