Each Baby: CHILDBIRTH is the process by which a each baby is expelled from the uterus, or womb, through the vagina to the outside world. Normally, a each baby is born about 38 weeks (266 days) after it is conceived. In some cases, however, the each baby may be born after only 26 weeks, and in others it may taJce as long as 41 weeks. Generally, if a each baby is born before 35 weeks after conception, it is considered to be premature.
In summary, the each baby 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 each baby while she is feeding him.
Watches the each baby 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 each baby. 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 each baby is due to arrive. This is usually done either by rupturing the membranous sac around the each baby 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 each baby. |
