Birth Injury Lawyer Effingham - Birth Injuries

What is a birth injury, and what are common birth injuries? Birth injuries occur during the delivery and can affect both the mother and child. These factors include,

• Large Baby - is known to cause complications during birth.
• Not Head First - If the baby is not delivered head first, this can potentially lead to injuries in other areas of the babies body.
• Premature Birth - A baby born before it's due date may be more susceptible to birth injuries.
• Small Pelvis or Birth Canal - A smaller birth canal makes birth harder.
• C-Section - Cesarean sections have the potential to cause birth injuries.

What are the most common birth injuries that result from these complications?

• Brachial Plexus Injury - This injury occurs during birth, and affects the nerves that run from the neck to the hands. This injury causes burning sensations, loss of function, and sometimes permanent loss of use.
• Brain Damage Injury - This can be caused by physical trauma caused during birth. This can often lead to cerebral palsy.
• Bone Fractures - During a difficult birth, too much force used to deliver the baby can cause the bones to fracture.
• Meconium Aspiration Syndrome - This injury occurs in about 5 to 10 percent of births, and typically occurs when the newborn breathes in a mixture of meconium and amniotic fluid into the lungs near the time of delivery.
