Learn More »On the Your Pregnancy Matters blog, we talk about a lot of fun topics, like gender reveal parties and head-to-toe ultrasound tours. However, as your pregnancy resource, it’s important to touch on situations that can be scary, such as labor and delivery complications and how we support women and babies during these times. One of the most common concerns our pregnant patients have about childbirth is that something might go wrong during labor, resulting in their baby having brain damage. While such emergencies are infrequent, one of the advantages of giving birth at a comprehensive facility like ours is that our patients have access to a state-of-the-art treatment that can serve to reduce the potentially devastating effects of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy(HIE), or infant brain damage. In the rare event an emergency occurs, our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) offers total body cooling for newborns – the only therapy currently shown to reduce brain damage if started in the first six hours of life. The therapy can have dramatic effects on long-term outcomes for infants, reducing death and certain disabilities by more than 10%.

There is nothing like the anticipation of welcoming a newborn into your family. Sadly, sometimes this excitement is cut short by a sudden loss of life. "Angel Baby," "Sunshine Baby," and "Rainbow Baby" are terms that refer to babies born just before or after another baby is lost due to a variety of reasons. They help immediate family members move through the grieving process and find meaning in the loss. The "sunshine" symbol is often used to refer to calm moments before a storm. In the same way, a sunshine baby is one born before you encounter a loss. This loss may result from: Miscarriage: the loss of a pregnancy in the first 20 to 24 weeks Stillbirth: a baby who is born without any signs of life at or after 24 weeks of pregnancy
