The two more commonly used people to deliver a baby are: obstetrician and midwife. Both are trained in the delivery of babies, the approaches they use are different. Obstetricians are trained to deliver babies safely and to deal with any complications or illnesses the pregnant and deliverying mom may encounter. Obstetricians deliver the majority of babies born in the U.S. Midwives have various levels of medical training and can deliver a baby safely when the pregnancy is not high risk and there are no complications. Most midwives are associated with a medical hospital or medical center in case of emergencies during delivery.

Meconium is the baby's first bowel movement and it is a thick green tar-like substance. For most babies, meconium is released shortly after they are born. However, some babies release meconium during labor and delivery. When a woman is in labor, her doctor will be able to tell if the baby has had a bowel movement because her amniotic fluid will be stained with meconium. The baby will be monitored very closely for any signs of fetal distress.

If meconium is present during labor or birth, the baby can aspirate the meconium or swallow it. Once the baby is born, the doctor will perform suctioning to reduce the amount of meconium that the baby can aspirate. If the baby does inhale the meconium, it can cause Meconium Aspiration Syndrome which can lead to meconium aspiration pneumonia - both can be very serious. As a result, the baby will be closely monitored and may require a stay in the NICU for several days to a few weeks. Treatment may include antibiotics or a ventilator. The doctor will perform chest x rays to make sure the lungs are functioning normally.

Babies swallowing meconium is more common than one may think. Ask some friends - chances are pretty good that it's happened to someone you know.

It depends on how far along you are. Most miscarriages occur in the first trimester and then it's either by inducing by pill which can happen at home or by surgery where the doctor will scrape the uterus and make sure nothing is left to cause infection. If it's later in the pregnancy they will also induce using medicine but then it will be like labor and take place at the hospital.

I am not a physician but I have had this problem. I was almost four months pregnant before I knew it because I had a period ALL NINE MONTHS! My doctor said that it wasn't common but not unheard of. He said it was probably because of my age (38) when I got pregnant and also that I was on a strong anti-biotic while taking "the pill." I would definitely talk with your doctor. It didn't have any effect on the birth of my daughter which we now refer to as our "miracle baby." I would visit a doctor immediately to find out why are you bleeding. Implantation Bleeding only occurs a week after conception, but low placenta's can cause bleeding so a lot of rest, no lifting and no exercise is recommended. If you are very early into the pregnancy then you may be lacking progesterone, doctors can provide you with medication which is safe to take whilst pregnant.

Some women have periods in the first few months in pregnancy or throughout pregnancy

Yes, After a certain age. But this will not harm the mother or the fetus unless the fetus consumes it feces (which can be okay but may need care after delivery).

Usually when this happens it is a sign of stress in the baby, it is found when the amniotic sac breaks (or is broken by the medical attendant) at some point in labor or just prior to labor beginning.

The danger is to the baby if he inhales the meconium (first BM) - either prior to birth or when he takes his first breath. Meconium is thick and sticky, when inhaled it clogs the bronchial passages and can cause a serious case of pneumonia.

To prevent the baby from inhaling and to clean any meconium from the baby's mouth and throat the doctor will instruct the laboring mother to stop pushing as soon as the baby's head is delivered and then suction the baby's mouth and throat. The baby will need to be seen by a Pediatrician as soon as he is born and will be monitored by the nursing staff for the first 24 to 48 hours, to watch for signs of pneumonia.

Education about teen pregnancy is vital in order to avoid it. Contraceptives should always be used in order to stop pregnancy unless the parents have a detailed life plan for themselves and the child as well as sufficient financial means for both. This is usually not the case with teen parents, and so boys and girls should be educated in school about the trials and consequences of unplanned pregnancy. To answer your originally worded question however, its because its a huge life change!

The chances of a child being born with light blue skin are improbable. However, a condition commonly known as "Blue Baby Syndrome" can occur when there is a difference in Rh factor between mother and child. The baby's skin is not actually blue in color, but appears blue because of the lack of oxygenated blood needed to keep the baby alive. This is also known as cyanosis. This syndrome can be fatal if not appropriately treated. Fortunately, it can also be prevented with an injection shortly after the birth of the mother's first child.

Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy in under 10% of women. There are few symptoms and it is usually diagnosed during normal blood tests done when you become pregnant. It is easily controlled but if left untreated can cause growth abnormalities in the offspring.
Gestational Diabetes is when a diabetic condition develops during pregnancy, usually in the 3rd trimester. It is usually self-limiting, meaning, it is resolved and goes away after the baby is born. However, it is a cause of concern. Doctor will require more frequent visits, urinalysis, and possibly more bloodwork. It's important to follow your doctor's orders, so you protect the baby. However, most times, the Gestational Diabetes will improve. It can predispose you to developing diabetes later in life, but that risk is low.

I haven't seen anything recommending vitamins before pregnancy, but all during pregnancy is recommended. And of course, if you have any vitamin deficiencies in general, you should take care of yourself.

Of course, because it is hard to know exactly when you become pregnant, if you are trying to get pregnant, it definitely can't hurt... and stopping things that would be harmful to a baby can't hurt either.
