Regarding the 'rule' about not resubmerging the baby's head if it has been born out of the water... what about the 'diving' reflex - does that not apply to birthing newborns?   For those who don't know the reflex I am refering to is when a baby's face is covered in water it stops breathing, and blood shunts to major organs only.  The lose this reflex after a few months ( I can't remember how many ).   ... or are babies just being born different?   Thanks, Jo   -- Babies are Born...
