A difficult birth or injury to the baby can occur because of the baby’s size or the position during labor and delivery. Conditions that may be associated with a difficult birth include the following:
Large babies (Me)
Premature birth - babies born before 37 weeks have more fragile bodies and may be more easily injured. (Danny)
Cephalopelvic Disproportion - the size and shape of the mothers pelvis is not adequate for the fetus to be born vaginally.
Dystocia - difficult labor or child birth prolonged labor.
Abnormal Birthing Presentation - breech deliveries (buttocks first).
Herbs Palsy/Brachial Palsy occurs when the bronchial plexus (which is a group of nerves that supply the arms and hands) is injured. It is most common when there is difficulty delivering the baby’s shoulder. The baby loses the ability to flex and rotate his or her arm. This injury causes bruising and swelling around the nerves, but movement should return within a few months. Tearing of the nerve may result in permanent nerve damage. The most common treatment is immobilization of the arm with a brace or splint. Special physical therapy exercises are also used to help return the range of motion to the arm.
