THE FIRST PHYSICAL EXAMINATION OF THE NEWBORN

During pregnancy, a woman wonders what the course of childbirth will be, what her baby will look like and how she will take over the role of a mother, which is associated with many challenges. Information obtained from specialists about the condition of the fetus during pregnancy or the newborn after birth is therefore very important for her. Therefore, specialists examining a newborn have a special responsibility for what information and how they will pass on to the mother. This monograph presents the first detailed examination of a newborn after birth in the presence of the mother or both parents, along with examples of the physiological state and shows deviations from the normal state in the physical examination. Additionally, the chapters of the manual have been enriched with QR codes, which allow you to load them to watch videos presenting the newborn's movements in various situations.
