Many mothers may experience infant asphyxia during childbirth due to reasons related to the baby or the mother. This kind of suffocation can easily lead the baby into a state of death, and even if rescued, it may leave some sequelae that affect the baby's healthy growth. So, will there be any sequelae of baby asphyxia?
In general, brief suffocation of a baby may not necessarily have an impact on their future growth, but there is a high probability that long-term suffocation of a baby will leave sequelae after rescue, and these sequelae have several aspects. One is intellectual disability. Long term suffocation of a baby before being rescued can cause hypoxia to the brain nerves, leading to disharmony and brain damage. Usually, babies may not be able to see it when they are young, but as they grow up, they can clearly see it. Moreover, this condition is difficult to cure and has a significant impact on the baby's future.
The second is paralysis. When a baby suffocates, there is insufficient oxygen in the body and blood circulation is disrupted, which can cause some parts of the body to become paralyzed and stop certain vital signs. Therefore, when the baby is rescued, it may make it difficult for the body mechanism to move freely like a normal person.
The third is delayed growth and development. Compared to other sequelae, this sequelae feature has little impact, but it is always not good for the baby's health. Their growth and development are always slower than others, which can easily leave a psychological shadow on the baby and lead to the development of inferiority, weakness, and even dark thoughts. So pregnant women should pay attention to their diet and exercise more during pregnancy to avoid difficulties in childbirth.
