Trabajo de parto y expulsión (o alumbramiento)


Explanation:
Well, the usual pair in American English is "Labor and delivery", but "childbirth" may be standing here for the more commmon "labor".

In fact, these ("trabajo de parto y expulsión") are the two stages of a childbirth.

Con respecto a 'alumbramiento'....


Explanation:
en Medicina, estrictamente hablando, 'alumbramiento' es la expulsión de la placenta. Es el último estadío del parto: ocurre después del nacimiento.
