Planning a Family• Review budget• Child care• Maternity/Paternity leave?• Women should be in good physical condition.• Important to plan for prenatal care (medical
care during pregnancy).• Stop using contraception (birth control).• If infertile is adoption or foster parenting
options?

Teenage Pregnancy• One in six teenagers who engage in
sex become pregnant.• 1 million girls between the ages 15-
19 become pregnant each year.• 400,000 pregnant teenagers are
under the age of 15.• Pregnancy rate for girls under 14 has
been increasing.
![Page 10: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Teenage Pregnancy• Serious health problem.• Babies born to young mothers are often
smaller and less healthy.• Teenage mothers are more likely to have
health problems themselves during pregnancy (don’t eat well or get adequate medical care during pregnancy).
• Other problems...
![Page 11: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Conception and PregnancyFertilization (conception) union
of an egg from the mother and a sperm from the father.
• Millions of sperm may be deposited in the vagina, only a few hundred make it to the fallopian tubes.
• Only one sperm can fertilize the egg.
![Page 12: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Fertilization continued...• The united egg and sperm are called
a zygote.• the zygote will travel through the
fallopian tube, begin to divide.
![Page 14: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fertilization continued...
• Within four to five days after fertilization, the growing structure reaches the uterus
• By this time, it is made up of about 500 cells.
• It has become a hollow sphere called a blastocyst.
![Page 16: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Blastocyst•Blastocyst attaches itself to the wall of the uterus. Implantation- the process of attachment.
•After implanted blastocyst is known as the embryo.
![Page 17: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Fertilization continuedPregnancy Testing • Most common sign of pregnancy is a missed
period.• Pregnancy can be determined as soon as
implantation has occurred. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)- a
hormone that is produced at the time of implantation. HCG can be found in the blood or urine.
![Page 18: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Embryo• Placenta- the organ that holds
the embryo to the wall of the uterus.
• Umbilical cord- the embryo’s life-line.
• The developing embryo is enclosed in a bag of thin tissue called the amniotic sac.
![Page 19: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

The Embryo• The embryo floats within the sac
in fluid called amniotic fluid.• By the end of the second month
of pregnancy, the embryo is 1.2 inches long and has features such as eyes, ears, hands and feet. At this point until birth, it is called a fetus.
![Page 21: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Fetus continued….•After 26 weeks, the fetus has a
good chance of survival•By the end of the ninth month,
the average fetus is 20 inches long and weighs 7.5 lbs.

Trimesters• The nine months of pregnancy are
divided into three periods, known as trimesters.
• Each trimester is three months long.
• The mother experiences many physical changes during each trimester.
![Page 34: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
First TrimesterMorning Sickness• Morning sickness consists of attacks of
nausea, and sometimes vomiting.• The cause is related to changes in levels of
certain hormones. Usually disappears after a few weeks.
Other changes• increase of breast size and breast tenderness• sleepiness
![Page 35: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The Second Trimester• abdomen begins to swell, and she
begins to feel the fetus moving.• the enlarged uterus pushes against the
mother’s digestive tract and bladder.• Thin fluid may begin to leak from the
nipples, this is the forerunner of breast milk.
![Page 36: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
The Third Trimester• Most women gain between 25-35
pounds during pregnancy. By third trimester the women is close to this weight.
• Movement of the fetus can be seen and felt.
• Indigestion and frequent urination continue.
![Page 37: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Third Trimester continued...• During the last few weeks the
mother may feel some irregular contractions.
• From two weeks - few days before birth, the mother’s abdomen hardens and fetus head begins to move lower in the uterus.
![Page 38: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Emotional Changes• Some expectant fathers experience
sympathetic pregnancy, a condition in which they share some of the mother’s discomfort, such as morning sickness or frequent urination ( most likely to occur during the first trimester).
![Page 39: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Prenatal Care• The chances of having a healthy
baby greatly improve if the mother practices good health habits and has prenatal care.
• Fetal Alcohol Syndrome mental retardation caused by alcohol

Prenatal Care continued• More than seventy inherited
disorders can be detected with either one of two methods.
1. Amniocentesis- older method, involves the removal of a small amount of amniotic fluid from around the fetus (14-16 week).
![Page 41: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• 2. Chorionic villus sampling- newer method, results can be available by the eighth week of pregnancy A small piece of chorion, a part of the placenta, is removed for examination.
![Page 42: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Ultrasound- high frequency sound waves used to make a “picture” of the developing fetus.
• Can detect abnormal bone, muscle, and heart formation. Also can confirm the position of the fetus in the uterus.

Birth •Birth begins when the wall of the uterus begins a series of contractions.
•Labor- the work of pushing the fetus out.
• Labor (birth) has three stages.
![Page 46: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
The Stages of BirthStage One•Usually lasts from 4-24 hours.
• Strong contractions cause the cervix to dilate, from 1 inch to 4 inches (2.5-10 centimeters).
![Page 47: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
•Each contraction lasts 30-90 seconds.
•The amniotic sac breaks and cervix softens to allow the fetus to pass through.
![Page 48: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Stage Two• Lasts 1/2 hour to 2 hours and
involves the actual birth, or delivery.
•Contractions of the uterus continue, and the baby is pushed out.
• Baby usually comes out head first.
![Page 49: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
• Baby’s nose and mouth are suctioned out.
• The umbilical cord is clamped and cut.
• Special eye drops are put in to prevent infection
• Injection of vitamin K is given to prevent excessive bleeding.
![Page 50: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
•Baby is given an Apgar score, way to determine the baby’s need for emergency care.
•A score of ten means the baby has come through the birth process in the best condition possible.
![Page 51: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Stage Three•Consists of delivery of the placenta, which is called the afterbirth.
•Stage lasts 15-30 minutes.
![Page 52: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

Complications of Pregnancy and Birth
• Ectopic Pregnancy- The zygote does not travel down the fallopian tube to the uterus. The blastocyst forms and becomes implanted in the fallopian tube.
• Results in the death of the embryo and surgery is needed
![Page 54: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Problems…Miscarriage • The expulsion of dead zygote,
blastocyst, embryo, or fetus from the uterus.
• Usually occurs during first trimester of pregnancy.
• It is a natural event that ends 15-20% of all pregnancies.
![Page 55: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Problems…Stillbirth• The birth of a dead, full-term fetus.Toxemia• serious condition: high blood pressure,
protein in urine, and swelling which is caused by fluid staying in the tissues.
• If not treated, mother can die.• more common in teens, women over 40
and women who have had health problems
![Page 56: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Complications At BirthCesarean Section- surgical method of
birth • Operation takes about 1 hour.• 25 % of births are cesarean section.Premature Birth• Delivery of a live fetus before it is ready
to be born.• Baby may be put in an incubator,
special chambers designed to protect the baby until it is more developed.
![Page 57: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Multiple Births• Delivery of more than one baby,
twins, triplets, or quadruplets.• Identical Twins- develop from the
same fertilized egg, or zygote. Zygote divides into two identical zygotes. They have identical inherited traits and are the same sex.
![Page 58: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
•Fraternal Twins- develop when two eggs are released from the ovary and are fertilized by two sperm. No more alike than any other siblings, may or may not be the same sex.
![Page 59: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
The Postpartum Period• Begins with delivery and ends about six
weeks after.• Uterus shrinks to normal size, breasts
produce milk.• Prolactin a hormone that causes milk to
form in the breast.• Oxytocin a hormone that causes the
uterus to contract and get smaller.• Exhaustion and irritability.
![Page 60: Pregnancy and Birth](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/5681656d550346895dd7ffae/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Changes in Newborn• Newborn’s lungs and digestive tract
begin to function. • Circulatory system and heart
undergo changes.• Nervous system reacts to new
sensation; light, touch, hunger and pain.
