Postmaturity

Postmaturity is a condition of a newborn that can lead to serious consequences for his health. This condition is characterized by a lack of vernix lubrication on the skin, as well as hardening of the skull bones and narrowing of the sutures.

Postmaturity can occur for various reasons, such as poor nutrition of the mother or medical problems in the mother or baby. If the baby is post-term, this can lead to health problems such as hypoxia, infections and other complications.

To avoid postmaturity, you need to monitor your health and the health of your baby, and follow your doctor’s recommendations. If you suspect your baby is post-term, contact your doctor immediately.



Postmaturity is a condition of a newborn in which birth is delayed longer than the permissible period, which can lead to various complications and health problems for the child. Postmaturity can occur due to various reasons, such as malpresentation of the fetus, difficult childbirth, pregnancy pathologies, etc. If childbirth is delayed for several days, this can lead to postmaturity, which is characterized by a lack of vernix lubrication and maceration of the skin, as well as hardening of the skull bones and narrowing of the sutures. Post-term babies often have breathing and digestive problems and may be susceptible to infections. Therefore, it is important to monitor the timing of labor and, if necessary, take measures to speed up the process.
