Labor Complications: Delivery is a natural process, but sometimes it can cause many problems. It can affect both the mother and the child. In such a situation, it is very important to know what can be the biggest risk when the child is born.

Which risk is greatest during delivery depends on many factors, such as the age and health of the mother, the stage of pregnancy, and the condition of the baby. However, some common complications can pose serious risks, including-

serious risk of delivery

delay or interruption in labor pains

If labor pains are delayed or stopped, the baby may not receive enough oxygen and nutrients. This can lead to fetal problems, brain injury, or even death.

Abnormal fetal position

If the baby is born buttocks or feet first instead of head first, delivery can be more difficult and risky.

Placenta problems

The placenta is an organ that is attached to the wall of the uterus and provides nutrition and oxygen to the baby. If the placenta detaches from the uterus (absence) or attaches abnormally (placenta praevia), it can cause severe bleeding and other complications.

Excessive bleeding

Excessive bleeding during delivery can be life-threatening for the mother. This can be due to several factors, such as torn tissue during delivery, placental abruption, or bleeding.

Infection

Infection may occur during or after delivery, which can be dangerous for both mother and child.

Embolism

If air, blood clots, or other substances enter the bloodstream, it can cause an embolism, which can damage the brain, heart, or lungs.

How to reduce these risks?

• Eat healthy foods, exercise regularly, and avoid smoking and alcohol.
• Learn about the possible complications during delivery so that you can recognize the symptoms and consult a doctor promptly.
