    The correct answer is D. Have delivered a baby before

    Explanation:

    Precipitous labor and delivery occur when the fetus is born just after a few hours of labor (2-3 hours). This situation has many risks for both the baby and the mother, such as excessive bleeding in the mother, and aspiration of amniotic fluid in the baby.

    Besides this, one of the main risk factors is to have delivered one or many babies before because this causes the muscles involved in delivery are more relaxed, which can make all the process faster. Thus, precipitous labor and delivery are most common in women who have delivered a baby before.
