Re: Baby Born Still In Amniotic Sac
i thought it strange as i never had seen the word meconium before. so i googled it and went to the wikipedia entry and read it. after a somewhat interesting read at wikipedia i then googled the images for meconium. (i still think the word sounds like an element from another planet that would immobolize a super hero.) i had thought of posting this in its own thread but changed my mind.  ·  ·  ·  · |

Re: Baby Born Still In Amniotic Sac
Meconium is a weird word..those pictures do no justice of what the stuff is like first hand.. Your third pic with baby delivered and umbilical cord attached is a good exaple.. the first one however? just looks like poop in a closed off cord  ..That stuff is really hard to clean off/up..some new parents may have to deal with the stuff first one or two poopy diaper changes (how often is the word "poopy" used on DR? ) And it is sticky..like tar. Scrolling through and coming to the post here, I noticed someone said about the original poster's first pic, and the baby being stillborn aswell.. Wasn't sure how to take it from name of post if the baby was "stillborn"..or "born still in the sac" Thinking about it..makes more sense now that the first one was stillborn aswell.  |

Re: Baby Born Still In Amniotic Sac
Baby looks alive and I hope it is. Maybe they took it out without popping it so all the fluid wouldn't be in the woman's abdominal cavity.

Re: Baby Born Still In Amniotic Sac
This doesn't look like a stillborn. It is a baby born "in the caul", and is a c-section birth. The doctor hasn't opened the sac yet. Of note, you can see the umbilical cord wrapped around the baby's neck.

Re: Baby Born Still In Amniotic Sac
My first son did too. Thankfully, everything turned out fine.
