TEENAGE PREGNANCY (MCCOY AND WIBBELSMAN,

1992: 235-236)AN UNPLANNED AND

UNWANTED PREGNANCY CAN CAUSE EMOTIONAL ANGUISH, POSSIBLE HEALTH RISKS, AND IN SOME CASES, LIMITED LIFE

OPTIONS.

Consider this statistics:1. Teens 15 and younger, face a 60% higher risk of death during pregnancy and child birth than young mothers on the age of 20.2.Babies born to young teenage mothers are two to three times more likely to die during their first year than babies born to older mothers.

3.Teen mothers are twice more likely to have low birth weight infants (at risk for physical and mental defects as well as increased risk of dying).

4.Seventy percent of teen mothers get no medical care at all during critical first months of pregnancy and 25% get no

prenatal care at all. This is specifically dangerous because, while a teen may be

able to conceive a baby, her body may not be quite ready for the

stresses of pregnancy and child birth.

5.EVEN WITH GOOD PRENATAL CARE,

TEENAGER MOTHERS ARE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE

PREMATURE LABOR AND TO DELIVER LOW BIRTH-

WEIGHT BABIES.

6. YOUNG TEEN MOTHERS ARE LIKELY TO DROP OUT

OF SCHOOL AND FACE HIGH RISK OF

UNEMPLOYMENT, POVERTY, AND DEPENDENCE ON

PARENTS.

7.IF THEY MARRY DUE TO PREGNANCY, THEIR RISK OF BREAK UP OR SEPARATION IS HIGH.

8.THE YOUNG MOTHER IS MORE LIKELY TO BE

ANGERED AND DISILLUSIONED BY HER BABY’S DEMANDS AND

MAY BECOME AN ABUSIVE PARENT.

Braxton Hicks contractions, which are "warm-up" contractions that do not thin and open the cervix (do not lead to labor)

Fatigue Back pain Pelvic ache and hip pain Hemorrhoids and constipation Heartburn Breathing difficulty, the

expanding uterus is just below the rib cage, leaving lungs less room to expand.

Mild swelling of the feet and ankles (edema). Pregnancy causes more fluid to build up in your body. This, plus the extra pressure that uterus places on the legs, can lead to the swelling of your feet and ankles.

Difficulty sleeping and finding a comfortable position. Lying on your back interferes with blood circulation, and lying on the stomach isn't possible. Sleep on your side, using pillows to support your belly and between your knees. Later in your pregnancy, it is best to lie on your left side. When you lie on your right side or on your back, the increasing weight of your uterus can partly block the large blood vessel in front of your backbone.

Frequent urination, caused by an enlarged uterus and the pressure of the fetus on the bladder.

•Hand pain, numbness, or weakness (carpal tunnel syndrome)

Phases of pregnancy 1. The first trimester of pregnancy lasts from week 1 through week 12. Your first sign of pregnancy may be a missed menstrual period.

The second trimester of pregnancy (from week 13 to week 27) is the time

when most women start to look pregnant and may begin to wear 

maternity clothes. By 16 weeks, the top of your uterus,called the fundus, will be about halfway between your pubic bone

and your navel. By 27 weeks, the fundus will be

about 2 in. (5 cm) or more above your navel.

2. You may find that the second trimester is the easiest part of pregnancy. For some women, the breast tenderness, morning sickness, and fatigue of the first trimester ease up or disappear during the second trimester, while the physical discomforts of late pregnancy have yet to start. Pressure on your bladder may be less as the uterus grows up out of the pelvis.

3.The third trimester lasts from week 28 to the birth. Many women have some discomfort during this time as their belly gets bigger. Sleep problems are common during this period.

BIRTHThe passage of a baby from its mother’s uterus to the outside of her body is called birth. During birth, the uterus contracts many times and pushes the baby through the vagina and outside the mother’s body

Labor is the process that lasts from the time contractions starts until the delivery of the child and the placenta. Labor lasts a different amount of time for every woman and every pregnancy.

There are three distinct stages of labor:1st Stage – Begins with the first contraction and last until the cervix has opened enough to allow the baby to pass through. Contraction happens every few minutes and lasts a minute.

2nd Stage – Starts when the cervix is completely epen and lasts until the baby is delivered. During this period, contraction happens every 2-3 minutes. After the baby is born, the doctor cuts the umbilical cord. Healthy babies breathe and cry almost immediately.

3rd Stage – This is the final stage of labor. It is when the placenta is delivered. In this stage, the mother’s uterine contractions push the placenta or “afterbirths” out of her body. At this time, the birth is completed.

REPUBLIC ACT NO. 9288AN ACT PROMULGATING A

COMPREHENSIVE POLICY AND A NATIONAL SYSTEM FOR

ENSURING NEWBORN SCREENINGNewborn means a child from the time of complete

delivery to 30 days old.Newborn screening

Newborn Screening (NBS) is a simple procedure to find out if the baby has a congenital

metabolic disorder that may lead to mental retardation or even death if left untreated. 

Importance of newborn screening Most babies with metabolic disorders look "normal" at birth. By doing NBS, metabolic disorders may be detected even before clinical signs and symptoms are present. And as a result of this, treatment can be given early to prevent consequences of untreated conditions.

When is screening done?  Newborn screening is ideally done on the 48th - 72nd hour of life. However, it may also be done after 24 hours from birth. 

How is newborn screening done?  A few drops of blood are taken from the baby's heel, blotted on a special absorbent filter card and then sent to Newborn Screening Center (NSC).

Who will collect the sample for newborn screening  The blood sample for NBS may be collected by any of the following: physician, nurse, medical technologist, or trained midwife. 

What are the disorders tested for newborn screening?  The disorders tested for newborn screening are:(1) Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) (2) Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) (3) Galactosemia (GAL)(4) Phenylketonuria (PKU)(5) Glucose-6-Phosphate-Dehydrogenase Deficiency (G6PD Def.)

The behavioural development of a healthy baby:

1.month suckles and smiles2-3 months vocalizes and controls head4-5 months controls hand and rolls over6-7 months sits briefly and crawls8-9 months grasps and pulls up10 – 11 months walks with support and stands alone

Activity 41: ALISA’S DILEMMA

Read the situation carefully. Reflect on the focus questions. Copy and write answers to the questions in your activity notebook.

Alisa is a 14 year-old girl who grew up in the province. When she was in grade eight, her aunt took her to Pasay to be a househelper in the morning and to study at night in the nearby public school. While studying, she fell in love with one of her classmates who is older than her.

They got married and lived in the squatter area of

Baclaran. She got pregnant but because her husband’s salary is below minimum

wage she did not go to any clinic or hospital for prenatal check-up. She saved money for the coming of the baby.

She gave birth in a public lying-in clinic to an

underweight child with several health complications. Alisa and her husband got so scared about their child’s

condition.
