BIRTHING AND BABY TESTS
BELL RINGER
• What will it be like to give birth to a child (or to have your wife give birth)? Do you want to do it all naturally? Do you want to be in a hospital? What are some of your concerns?
3 STAGES OF LABOR
1ST STAGE
• During the first stage, uterine contractions begin (left) and are usually spaced from 10 to 20 minutes apart.
• Initially the contractions are gentle, but they tend to become more powerful and sometimes uncomfortable.
• The cervix dilates with each contraction (right), and the baby’s head rotates to fit through the mother’s pelvis.
2ND STAGE
• The second stage of labor usually lasts about 90 minutes. • During this stage, the cervix opens sufficiently and the
baby begins to move down the birth canal. • The mother pushes, or bears down, in response to
pressure against her pelvic muscles. The crown of the baby’s head becomes visible in the widened birth canal.
BIRTH
• As the head emerges entirely (left) the physician turns the baby’s shoulders (right), which emerge one at a time with the next contractions.
• The rest of the body then slides out relatively easily, and the umbilical cord is sealed and cut.
3RD STAGE
• Following the exit of the infant, the third stage of labor occurs.
• The uterus continues to contract, expelling the severed umbilical cord and placenta, called the afterbirth.
• The third stage occurs within ten minutes of the baby’s birth.
C SECTION OR CESAREAN BIRTH
• Delivery or a baby by making surgical incisions in the mothers abdomen
• Why C-section? • Mother too small• Baby too big• Fetal distress• Mother or child cannot tolerate labor• STDs• Previous C-section

ANESTHESIA • Most women prefer some kind of anesthesia.• Natural (unmedicated) childbirth is becoming more popular
because the anesthesia can make the newborn baby less alert after birth.
• An epidural is given in the spinal sheath and numbs the patient from the waist down.
• A paracervical block, also known as a cervical block numbs the cervix.
• A pudendal block is given in the pudendal nerve and will numb the whole bottom and legs.
• The cervix must dilate to some degree before any anesthesia is given. For this reason, a mother needs to learn some breathing and relaxation techniques.
AFTER BIRTH
• APGAR Test • Given 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth• Babies are given a 0, 1, or 2 in 5 categories• Categories are
• Heart Rate• Respiratory effort• Muscle tone• Reflex irritability• Color
PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT
• Reflexes • Rooting
• Turns head towards anything that brushing their face• Needed for survival
