Baby Received: CHILDBIRTH is the process by which a baby received is expelled from the uterus, or womb, through the vagina to the outside world. Normally, a baby received is born about 38 weeks (266 days) after it is conceived. In some cases, however, the baby received may be born after only 26 weeks, and in others it may taJce as long as 41 weeks. Generally, if a baby received is born before 35 weeks after conception, it is considered to be premature.
In summary, the baby received is more likely to get the food he needs if the adult fulfills the following conditions:
Gives him affection as well as food, relaxes and enjoys the baby received while she is feeding him.
Watches the baby received rather than the clock. Although a three-hour, and later a four-hour, schedule of feedings is satisfactory for many babies, the schedule should be changed if it does not seem to fit a particular baby received. If he wakes up at 4 A.M. it is best to feed him then, before he cries hard and long, and gradually to let him work out a Flexible schedule that seems best for him and not too hard on the rest of th " family.
Sometimes childbirth may be started, or induced, by the physician before the baby received is due to arrive. This is usually done either by rupturing the membranous sac around the baby received or by injecting Pitocin or another oxytocic substance (one that stimulates the uterus walls to contract) into the patient's vein. Often, both of these procedures are combined. In inducing childbirth, however, complications may arise, not the least of which is the delivery of a premature baby received. |
