How Did My Baby Sustain An Injury During The Birthing Process?

If your baby is injured during the birthing process, it may be due to a lack of preparation or inadequate preventative measures.

The common types of birthing injuries are:

Brachial plexus palsy (Erb’s palsy)
Cerebral palsy
Bone fractures
Cephalohematoma
Caput succedaneum
Perinatal asphyxia
Facial paralysis
Spinal cord injuries

A birth injury can be caused by various factors such as prematurity, a baby’s birth weight greater than eight pounds, prolonged labor or a breeched delivery (buttocks first). A high percentage of birthing injuries can be avoided by identifying and planning for the risks associated with the birthing process.
