Feedback

D Although many women experience transient postpartum blues, they need

Answer to Question 2

asphyxia
Complications during pregnancy, labor, or birth increase the infant's risk for asphyxia. If
the mother receives narcotics shortly before birth, the infant may be too physiologically
depressed to breathe spontaneously. Resuscitative measures must be initiated immediately
to prevent permanent brain damage or death.
