Mothers are not the only ones at risk for injury and even death during the delivery process. Complications during delivery can cause severe, permanent and even fatal birth injuries to newborns. Common types of birth injuries include cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy and other forms of severe brain damage. Too often these injuries occur because a complication is not recognized in time or a c-section is not performed quickly enough. Many birth injuries can require a lifetime of care and treatment.

- Failure to monitor gestational diabetes
- Inappropriate medication during pregnancy
