Fetal Immune System not so naive after all.
When a Pregnant mother receives her recommended Flu vaccine, she’s not the only one whose Immune System gears up to battle the virus. Her fetus can also mount an immune response against the Flu, say researchers in the United States.
The finding runs contrary to the stereotypical view of the fetal Immune System. For more than 50 years, this has been thought of as at best wimpy, capable of some basic, general responses but not the elegant, finely targeted defences found in adults.
But allergy researcher Rachel Miller of Columbia University, New York, and her colleagues found that about a third of babies born of vaccinated mothers were equipped with cells tailor-made to fight off the Flu virus.
“This indicates that the baby’s got a pretty well-developed immune system by the time it’s born,” says immunologist William Burlingham of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Given that carrying a baby is an extremely critical task, a Pregnant woman is always wary of what she eats. This is specifically so because what she ingests has a direct impact on the child’s overall health. Irrespective of whether it is something to eat or drink, cigarette or drug, the expecting mother always wants to be sure if it is safe for the baby she is carrying.
Since most conventional medications have some side effect or another, the general rule is that expecting mothers should avoid taking any type of medication during Pregnancy. But the state of Pregnancy creates many challenges – some physical and other psychological.
The first Trimester of Pregnancy brings along nausea and vomiting and a major hormonal changes. The second Trimester is easier. The third Trimester is a harbinger of backaches and a strong desire to get it over and done with.

A woman’s body undergoes a lot of changes during Pregnancy and child birth. Hormonal changes, physical Stress of birth and lack of sleep coupled with the added responsibility of parenting, predispose the new mother to mental disorders like depression. Extreme cases of post partum depression may cause unpleasant emotional turbulence, hallucinations and even thoughts of suicide.
Women who are more liable to suffer from post partum depression include:
* Women with a history of an earlier depression or family history of depression.
* Single women.
* Women who do not have family’s support.
Post partum depression is a common occurrence but rarely manifests in full severity. The treatment involves the same steps as those involved in Treating Depression and in most cases antidepressants are administered. But the safety of using these drugs during breast feeding is open to doubt.

When Dr. Shoshana Bennett, a licensed psychologist and the founder of Postpartum Assistance for Mothers, agreed to create a hypnosis audio program for us, we were very honored. Beyond the Baby Blues is the exciting result.
Dr. Bennett has helped over 15,000 mothers cope with postpartum depression and other postpartum mood disorders, and is one of the most respected therapists in this area. She is frequently called by CNN as a subject expert, and 20/20 featured her as its postpartum expert.
With Dr. Bennett’s expertise, we knew the program would be great. We just didn’t know how great.
What Are the “Baby Blues”?
The “Baby Blues” are extremely common (about 80% of new mothers experience the blues), and considered to be a normal experience after Childbirth. Although they don’t feel good, they are mild and should be gone by about two weeks after the baby is born. They begin during the first few days after delivery and include:

The postpartum herbal bath is wonderfully healing for both mom and baby. The recommended herbs have astringent and antiseptic properties which soothe and heal sore bottoms, help dry up the baby’s cord stump, and prevent infections. You and your baby can take a minimum of one bath per day for the first five days postpartum. If you have stitches or any lacerations, you may want to take two baths per day for two to three weeks, or until healing is complete. Hydrotherapy on its own is widely recommended for pain relief; add the herbs and you speed the healing process.

At the same time as you are recovering physically, you are also adjusting to the new baby and the many joys and responsibilities new motherhood brings. The next few weeks may be some of the most tiring, challenging yet exhilarating times that you have ever experienced!
