Positive feedback is a mechanism where the response reinforces the stimulus. In childbirth, contractions (the response) are stimulated by the baby's position (the stimulus). As contractions occur, they further stimulate more contractions, intensifying the process until childbirth is complete. This is in contrast to negative feedback (like body temperature control, regulation of salt balance, regulation of blood sugar levels, and sweating which aim to maintain homeostasis by counter - acting the stimulus).
