Expecting a child is supposed to be one of the most exciting times as a parent. Thanks to many advances in technology and the widespread knowledge of prenatal care, most of the time the birth of a child is successful and comes to pass without any issues. But this isn’t always the case – while parents can take all the care in the world, all it takes Is a small, unexpected mistake during delivery to make it all come undone.

Birth injuries are defined as a complication that occurs during labor or during the delivery process. According to a National Healthcare Quality Report published by the Agency for Healthcare and Research Quality, as many as 7 out of 1000 births experience a preventable birth injury. The most common birth injuries are due to improper medical technique on the obstetrician’s part. Using incorrect tools such as forceps, a vacuum, or otherwise poorly timing a child’s accurate delivery date resulting in an unnecessarily early birth – all of these can lead to traumatic and irreversible birth injuries that can permanently affect a child’s life.
Common types of birth injuries include:
- Facial Paralysis
- Brain Injuries
- Fractures
- Cephalohematoma (Bleeding beneath the cranium)
- Paralysis
- Bone Fractures
- Perinatal Asphyxia (When a baby does not receive sufficient oxygen)
- Cerebral Palsy
- Erbs Palsy

A child’s birth should be pure and healthy. There is no reason to start life with a disadvantage that could be prevented. A healthy birth, on its own, is an extremely expensive procedure to endure even with insurance. Most parents pay the full cost of the procedure over years out of pocket. Keeping up with these costs is hard enough.
