Cut the Risk of Cerebral Palsy in Premature Babies

The risk of cerebral palsy in premature babies can be cut by giving the mothers magnesium sulfate just before they give birth. The mineral compound is used already to treat pregnancy-related high blood pressure and to stop early labor. The mineral is cheap and not harmful.

Cerebral palsy is a serious condition and complication of premature babies. It is caused by damage to the part of the brain that controls movement. It would cause poor muscle control and coordination. It is not completely clear how magnesium sulfate words but it is assumed that it opens up the blood vessels in the infant’s brain. The mineral is also a sedative and can make the mothers and infants feel sleepy.

There also was a study that found that women that take folic acid for at least a year before they get pregnant could reduce their chances of premature birth by 50 to 70 percent. Taking folic acid is already recommended for women to prevent birth defects of the brain and spinal cord, such as spina bifada.

Newborn Found with Pacifier Taped to Mouth at Daycare Center

In Jefferson City, TN, a four month old baby boy was found in a dark room at a daycare center with a pacifier taped into his mouth. The Tennessee Department of Human Services received a complaint that a caregiver at Noah’s Ark Nursery and Preschool was taping babies’ mouths shut.

An investigator went to the daycare center and heard muffled whining from the bathroom and found the baby boy’s mouth covered with two pieces to two-inch-wide clear packing tape over a pacifier. The child could have died, ingested the tape, aspirated, or had breathing problems. Two of the caretakers on duty admitted to what they did and admitted that they have done this before to children. Back in 2005, the same daycare was investigated after a child died from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in the facility.

The facility cares for 24 children between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years old. The facility is still under investigation. It is sad that you can’t trust some daycare centers.
