Maryland Birth Injuries Lawyer
A Birth injury is damage sustained during the birthing
process, typically occurring during transit through
the birth canal. A difficult delivery, with the risk
of injury to the fetus, may occur if the birth canal
is too small or the fetus is too large (as sometimes
occurs when the mother has diabetes). Injury is also
more likely if the fetus is lying in an abnormal position
before birth. Overall, the rate of birth injuries is
much lower now than in previous decades.
Many newborns experience minor injuries from the birthing
process, with swelling or bruising only in certain areas.
