Anesthesia is the use of medications used to prevent the sensation of pain during surgery or a painful procedure. There are different types of anesthesia, but all are intended to block nerve impulses and, therefore, pain.

The birth of a child is a transcendental event, and as has been mentioned on other occasions, what happens during childbirth is deeply engraved in the brain of mother and baby. It is an experience that marks us and leaves us with an invaluable gift: our baby.

Although we often focus on the mother, it is clear that for the baby the birth is the discovery of a new world of sensations.

A veiled or blanketed birth is one in which the baby is born inside the intact amniotic sac, just as it is inside the mother's uterus during pregnancy, so much so that the baby does not know that it has come into the world even though it is no longer inside the her mother's womb.

Birth photographs summarize in an instant the beauty of one of the most powerful experiences for parents: the birth of a child. They perfectly convey the intensity of the moment, the feelings of the parents and relatives, as well as the unforgettable moment of seeing his face for the first time and the first moments with the newborn.

The stories of cryptic pregnancies - those in which the woman does not know she is pregnant until the moment of delivery - have always seemed impressive to me, and the one that we will share today is not only impressive, but it fills us with hope and wonder.

We speak of instrumental delivery when the use of external elements is used to extract the baby through the birth canal at the time of delivery. The most commonly used instruments are forceps, suction cups, and spatulas.

When we are no longer new mothers we have sharpened the power to organize everything automatically and contemplate possible changes of script before they occur. One of those moments in which we put to the test everything we have learned with a good previous organization is the arrival of the second child: labor can start at any time and it is necessary to contemplate all possible scenarios so that your brother lives it in a calm way. and be a good experience for him.
