Spina bifida in unborn babies is a birth abnormality which results in a deformed or malformed backbone. The Latin originated words “spina bifida” means “split” or “cracked” spine”. It is even called neural tube effect and can be easily detected by the ultrasound baby scan clinic’s technicians via an ultrasound scan. This congenital defect can be diagnosed by certain diagnostic tests though ultrasound is usually preferred due to its accuracy. The diagnostic tests are as mentioned below: 1.

Ultrasound is an important and predetermined part of your pregnancy experience. Pregnancy is beautiful, but wait, isn’t it one of the most difficult phases of a woman’s life? Sure, it is, but you’ll forget about everything once you hold your precious little honeybunch in your bosoms. However, personally, I feel, the best part of pregnancy is visiting the ultrasound baby scan clinic to meet your unborn darling. A USG not only determines your baby’s growth and development, but also checks for congenital abnormalities beforehand, so that you can take actions accordingly. Sadly, nowadays, many expected parents instead of asking crucial questions about their unborn baby’s health, explode the mind of USG techs with silly questions completely based on their aesthetic entertainment. If you’re one of them, please understand that a baby scan is done to diagnose the unborn child and not to entertain others. So, please don’t bicker over ultrasound images by saying the baby do...

C-Section is normally done if you have any complication in your pregnant or if you are not a first-time mother and you had a C-Section during your first pregnancy. But normally these complications can be detected once you go to a  baby scan clinic and you would know beforehand whether you are going to have a natural birth or C-Section. Before the operation is performed the mother is given anesthesia in her spine using injection. Due to this injection, the area surrounding the spine begins to hurt after the anesthesia wears off. All the muscles, ligaments, and nerves in the back start to hurt. This pain sometimes reduces while lying down. Normally this back pain fades away after a couple of days but in some cases, it tends to stay for more than weeks. This usually happens if an injury is caused in the nerves of the spinal region due to the injection. Sometimes if the pain becomes too much, doctors carry out a blood patch. It means some blood is taken from your own body and re ...
