also have independent ( not mine) study showing concern re babies being put

personally i have met 4 mums, 3of whom lost their babies and one (a dr. who
nearly did) after placing thier wee babies 'feet to foot' of the cot.the

I am taken by surprised of this tooi teach the
very same as you Karen. I also believe that the cord should be cut
immediately before giving synto, to prevent passage of syntocinon into baby's
circulationif cord is still pulsating, one would think this is possible as
synto act
The reason given for hasty cord clamping AFTER (not
before) administering synto is not to prevent synto entering baby's circulation,
but to prevent over tranfusion due to the excessive contraction thus produced
'pushing' too much blood into baby due to squeezing the placenta. Synto

I totally understand what you are saying. But
what about the ergot component of the syntometrine that is given in 3rd
stage? I wonder what effect this has on babies? If ergot has the
quick action it does on causing a sustained uterine contraction...it obviously

I have a friend who has been a ipm for many years and she believes that
babies are more likely to get jaundiced when the mother has had synto,
it makes sense of they get that extra unneccessary boost of blood.

There are many reasons that influence whether a baby gets jaundiced or
not
Two of these are
1. prematurity ( of the liver as well as dates, some babies livers take
ages to be efficient enough to clear the jaundice.
2. Not passing mec soon after birth. The longer the mec stays inside

Sorry about the cordclamping site, it is no longer. Here are a few

My experience of this, is that if the cords are not cut until they have
finished pulsing, babies seem to develop jaundice for longer..(that the
usual standards) . That makes complete sense to me, since they get more
blood than babes that had cords clamped and cut quickley.
I'm sure I read
Given that I have been doing physiological 3rd stage for 23 yrs, I feel I
can add my bit to this theme. It has not been my observation that babies
get more jaundiced if the cord is left unclamped. I rarely have a
pathological jaundice and this is usually ABO and do not often have anything
more
I absolutely agree on the early feeding theory Andrea.
Years ago Noble Park (?) Pvt Hosp (who I think either don't exist or don't
do mid anymore) did a study (in 1990/1 maybe) on how initiating early breast
feeding (with EBM or colostrum if no suckling happening) maintaining reg
feeding

Dear Jo, A CD would be valuable and ever reusable resource count me
There are some who believe the higher levels of antioxidants caused by
jaundice may be protective of babies, and mild jaundice 'may' be normal.

My hospital born baby, induction by gels, 8hr labour, synto to birth
placenta had jaundice. My 3 water births at home, 1 same length and 2
shorter labours, no intervention, placenta attached around 3 hours after
birth, no jaundice.
Too many variables to suggest its one cause.
