Christy the baby was just fine. It was breathing just not crying. Water babies often don't cry. Breathing should always be taken seriously but fortunately most of the time things go just fine. Remember the baby was still attached to the cord so even if he is not breathing in the conventional sense babies usually get a great deal of oxygen from the cord as long as you don't cut it. A cord is often nature's way of giving a baby oxygen if they are slow to transition.
Comment by Christy Mikula on May 7, 2012 at 10:59am I wish only wellness to this family. But, do wish that viewers could see the baby reach vitality so as to reassure all of us that there was not a lack of oxygen. I service certain births in my profession and find this delay in delivery, possible lack of oxygen, and substantially weak response from the newborn to be seriously concerning. In my experience, this is what a dangerous birth looks like. Please post an update to calm viewers concerns. My stomach still turns as I wonder if this child suffered any brain damages. Again, my hope is for the family and continued success of home birth as a whole.
