    In horses we wait until the cord stops pumping before the mare or we separate the cord. That way the blood all goes to the baby.

    Something that has never made sense to me is why even if the baby needs
    “ resuscitation” ... when it first comes out, why would they disconnect the baby from a line where they’re getting oxygen?

    • @sarahlavonne

      GREAT question with a long answer... I'll try for Jan coffee and questions!

    • @melissaboyce3629
      @melissaboyce3629 3 года назад +2

      From my experience the cord should be used as part of the resuscitation in stead of cutting, it, when s baby is born flat. The cord is similar to an electrical wire, connected to a power supply which is the placenta, the wire/umblical cord is compressed, during birth preventing proper voltage /oxygen from reaching the baby, hence the cord should be used to jump-start the flat baby, with blood and oxygen,, stem cells, neurons, neurotransmitters,fluid replacement. So baby can turn from pale to pink, baby can cry, instead of cutting the cord/ cable wire.

    • @melissaboyce3629

    • @melissamourgan2420
      @melissamourgan2420 2 года назад

      @@ushaa8090 no risk of infection because mother is given antibiotics in the case of a c section because of the abdominal incision. In vaginal birth the placenta organ will detach from the wall of the uterus and exit the body through the birth canal same way baby exits in vaginal birth. So there’s no lingering umbilical cord in mother. Baby’s cord will dry up and fall off usually takes about two weeks.

      This can take 15 min. Are you really suggesting the placenta,will be delivered one to three minutes after baby? In all cases?
      It can take 30 min for placenta to come away on the long side.

    • @topanga26
      @topanga26 5 лет назад +3

      Louisa Capell I have seen a placenta take more than 10 minutes to come out ONCE. Most are out around the 6 minute mark and by the time it’s delivered it’s been partially detached from the uterus already and not pulsating. If it’s not pulsating, the blood is pooling in the cord. Once it’s stops pulsating, there is no reason to not clamp.

      Bridget Teyler basically you are asking for things to go the complete opposite way you *plan* for it to go. The universe has a way of letting you know you are not in control of childbirth. I swear, the more detailed the birth plan, the more likely problems arise. Not because of hospital staff but because it just always seems to play out like that. The more “live and let live” you are about your labor and delivery and breastfeeding , the more likely you will be successful. The more control and pressure, the more likely issues will arise!

      @@topanga26 why not stop being an entitled "oh, I help deliver babies", negative person. Are you a trained and certified OB/GYN, midwife or doula?! I've seen your judgemental comments on other comments. There are LITERALLY WOMEN giving birth everyday and doing this until the cord stops pulsating and their babies are doing just fine and well. Just because some women take 5 min doesn't mean they all do. Some take longer and OBs and Nursing staff have for too long bullied MOTHERS using fear tactics into what the hospital wants not the mothers need which are VERY IMPORTANT just as well as the child's. No mother wants anything bad to happen to their child, the more detail the better the HOSPITAL and STAFF have an understanding that THEY WORK FOR THE PATIENT WHO PAYS THEM NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. You don't pay someone for a service and then they take the reigns on the whole thing and you just sit there and get what you get, when it isn't what you asked or paid for. Doctors are the employees and patients who pay cash or insurance are the employers. You work for the person not the other way around and you all are so entitled. Yes, we get it life doesn't go according to plan, but when a BIRTHING PLANS says "NO, I DO NOT CONSENT TO (X, Y, or Z)", THAT MEANS NO CONSENT to whatever YOU FEEL IS BEST when sometimes the staff doesn't have the mother or child's best interest and can and HAVE caused injury to one or both and yet, where are the repercussions? Oh, that's right its the hospital staff vs a parent. Who do you think wins that battle. Why so you think, magically, hospitals across the nation are trying to ban filming the birth? Because they keep getting sued for violating the mothers right consent laws which is malpractice which also resulted in some injuries to babies and some treatments the mothers didn't want nor ask for and explicitly told staff not to do multiple times during the event. Don't push your bullshit that doctors know best on mothers because when its a mother and baby vs an OB and their staff as well as the hospital because of something the doctor caused and injured one or both of them the entire hospital WILL NOT ADMIT FAULT to their decisions. They are about money at the end of the day, period. Not about the children or the parents. That doesn't mean all doctors are bad people, it means they have an obligation to the hospital at the end of their day for monetary gain and to not lose their job or get the hospital sued, despite the oath they took to put the patient first.

      They call it a retained placenta when it doesn't detach within 30 min after baby is born. To check that theres not pieces left they examine the placenta after it comes out to see that it's intact. They can usually tell if it's whole or not.

I’m delivering in a military hospital so I’m hoping my midwife is on board with delayed cord clamping. I’d also like to wait for the first actual bath too because I’ve heard about the benefits of protection from bacteria and what not afterwards. I’m still researching all the benefits. What are your views on it?

    I totally agree and actually brought this up to my dr today at my appt and she said their protocol is to just wait 1 min then cut it. I told her I wanted to have it cut after a few minutes until the cord stops pulsing and she just repeated that they wait 1 minute....I’m beyond frustrated with drs and wish I could have a home birth but don’t trust the safety of having my baby at home. I have a friend who had serious complications for her home birth and now her baby has cerebral palsy. The midwife should have sent her to the er way sooner cause the baby was coming out butt first. The dr said the blood will start pulsing back into the he placenta and cause anemia if not cut after one minute...I’m torn at what to do

      Mary Weikel my opinion is go with what the dr says. It won’t make that big if a difference anyway. Hopefully you’ll have a safe delivery and healthy baby.

      Sounds like you have an uneducated doctor as people do much later delayed cord clamping everyday without issue. I'd get a new doctor at all costs. Find a doctor who believes they work for you, not you for them.
      After 3 hospital births, my last homebirth was by far the safest delivery. Get a good midwife. Do your research. This is your child. Don't give in to bullies.

    With my first it was immediately cut. With my second the hospital offered delayed cord clamping. My first baby needed to be resuscitated so we went over what would happen with my second, they allowed for bub to be resuscitated on my lap and he was and everything turned out great. I would say it would be confronting having baby resuscitated right there ontop of you, but after my first I was a little more calm and collected about it and I preferred him be there with me rather then being taken from me and I’m left worried about if he is okay or not

    My doctor mentioned that if the baby is past the 39 weeks it is sufficiently developed and after the fact that my hospital is totally into doing the delayed cord clamping... she said that it doesn’t make a huge difference for the baby’s health

    Hello! Thanks for the video! What about ceserean birth? Do we still have time for delayed cord clamping , or they take away baby and try to close us?
    Also what about cord banking? If ee do delayed clamping , can we still do cord banking?

  • @jennyg.1287
    @jennyg.1287 4 года назад

    so I understand the concept. But I am wondering, since its a circulation, doesn't the pulsating also remove blood from the infant to maintain the equilibrium? Or is there negative pressure from the baby to suck the placenta dry like a Capri-Sun? I am due in like 3 weeks, and I will have them wait if possible, but I can't help wondering.

    Thank you for sharing your information about delayed blood cord clamping. I am not due until may 2019, but it's my first time being pregnant so I've been trying to gain and harbor as much information in terms of pregnancy, labor and delivery, post partum, etc as I can so I can be as prepared as one can really be in terms of having a baby. I had debated this and wanted to do it with my delivery. But I did hear from someone that they were told by a doctor that it's kind of pointless to wait if the baby is upright on your chest because of gravity keeping the blood from actually traveling up to the baby(?) I think he was pretty much saying that unless you hold the baby down where gravity is working for you, he believes delayed cord clamping to be kind of pointless(?) I just wanted to know your thoughts on that?

      If the pulse gets to the weak stage I guess it would be pointless. Having no medical background and gathering info like yourself, I'd agree that once there's no need to rush baby off to stabilize breathing etc, I'd want to delay as long as possible

      Completely forgot to ask my question! Is there a time when it's considered to long to wait? Like would the blood flow back into the placenta if you wait too long or is it a one way valve? Would infections develop?

    • @sarahlavonne
      @sarahlavonne  4 года назад +2

      Too long is it rotting off 😂😂😂 but you really don't get any more benefit after about 3-5 min or it stops pulsating

    • @archeressbirthkeeping78

      Milking the cord can be dangerous. It forces blood into baby too quickly and causes the heart to work harder to process the fast flow of blood

    The volume of fluid dosn't change, its a cycle as the blood goes in it also comes out. The difference will be in the hormones which are being defused in to the babies bodies.

  • @pailinmurphy7608
    @pailinmurphy7608 5 лет назад +1

    pit safe to assume that in the case of a cesarean that there won’t be a delayed cord clamping because the placenta is (to the best of my knowledge) pulled out of the incision with the baby?

    • @thesaintmustwalkalone708
      @thesaintmustwalkalone708 5 лет назад

      They can keep the placenta attached to the baby in most all cases (if not emergency for baby). They just don't because it takes a little more effort.
