Be Aware of Birth Injury Warning Signs
During the birthing process and for some time after, infants are extremely vulnerable to birth injury and disease. Any amount of trauma can have a serious impact on the life of the child, but doctors and nurses are trained to recognize problems and act accordingly. Warning signs such as leaking amniotic fluid, blood pressure changes, weight loss/gain, and premature labor/contractions should not be taken lightly. If a physician fails to acknowledge warning signs or reacts too slowly, the results can be distressing.Common Birth Injuries
