To put the stages of labor and birth for Annika in the correct order, we can follow the typical progression of events:
1. Annika feels light contractions and may see her water break.
2. Contractions get closer and stronger, and she calls her midwife.
3. Annika feels the need to push and feels the hair on the baby's head.
4. The baby is born and put on Annika's chest.
5. The placenta is expelled.
By arranging the stages in this order, we follow the natural course of events that typically occur during labor and childbirth.
