Forms of Birth defects
Posted in 2014


What form do birth defects take?
Defects of limbs, heart and spinal cord together represent about half of all abnormalities.
The most common kinds of defect are those affecting the limbs (arms and legs). These include missing or extra fingers or toes, deficiencies in limb length, and abnormalities in positioning, such as club foot.
Heart abnormalities represent the next most common category of defect. Common heart defects include 'holes in the heart' where blood can pass from one side of the heart to the other. Again, these may not all be detected at birth.
The third most common kind of defect affects the spinal cord, such as spina bifida.
Other defects commonly observed include those affecting the face (such as cleft lip and palate), problems with the development of the intestines and stomach, and problems affecting the sexual organs.
Major chromosomal problems, such as Down's syndrome (Trisomy 21), are found in about 0.15 per cent of births (about three babies in every 2000).
My opinion is "PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE"
i researched on defective births and found that if couple take care of Healthy life style, Healthy food etc...can prevent birth defects. They should be careful of their medicines(Some medicines) -- which will give side effects or reactions due to which many couple lost their pregnancies or give birth to defective child...Beside this their life style and mind plays major role to avoid such births.
I wish every couple should Enjoy with their Healthy Child...it is only possible with your Healthy food, Healthy life style etc....to know the contents of your food visit my blogs whose links are available in my website http://successgain.us

Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Posted in 2014 Pregnancy can pose serious challenges to sleeping well. Poor quality and too little sleep are common during pregnancy, when many women experience fragmented sleep and symptoms of insomnia. Even women who don’t generally experience sleep problems find that during pregnancy they have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep, as well as trouble getting enough sleep. We talk a lot about sleep issues for new mothers. But new research   suggests we should be paying more attention to the sleep health of expectant mothers as well. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center found   links between both the quality and quantity of pregnant women’s sleep and complications at birth, including low birth weight ...

Fibre deficiency during Pregnancy...4

Fiber deficiency during Pregnancy...4 Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info   7...  Why do we need to eat fibre? It used to be called “roughage”, and people tried to get rid of it.  Now we have heard plenty about it, but why do we need fibre in our diet? Dietary fibre is actually a form of  carbohydrate that does not get digested by enzymes in our small intestine, and so its sugar units are not absorbed into the bloodstream.  Dietary fibre is therefore known as ‘non-glyceami"‘. However, fibre has important effects on other nutrients within the small intestine and through effects on the large intestine, where few other nutrients arrive intact.  It has a range of valuable health effects: Smooths out digestion and absorption of glucose and fats in the small intestine.  It reduces the Glycaemic index of a meal. Provides fuel for the healthful or  good ba...

Know about Spinal cord

Know about Spinal cord Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Know about Spinal cord Posted in 2015 The spinal cord is a long, fragile tubelike structure that begins at the end of the brain stem and continues down almost to the bottom of the spine (spinal column). The spinal cord consists of nerves that carry incoming and outgoing messages between the brain and the rest of the body. It is also the center for reflexes, such as the knee jerk reflex  Like the brain, the spinal cord is covered by three layers of tissue (meninges). The spinal cord and meninges are contained in the spinal canal, which runs through the center of the spine. In most adults, the spine is composed of 26 individual back bones (vertebrae). Just as the skull protects the brain, vertebrae protect the spinal cord. The vertebrae are separated by disks made of cartilage, which act as cushions, reducing the forces generated by...
