How to care for the baby with fetal distress?

First: fetal distress is mainly due to the lack of oxygen in the baby, so after the fetal head comes out, immediately remove some mucus and amniotic fluid from the fetal nose, mouth and throat, so as to avoid continuing to hinder the respiratory tract of the fetus, resulting in the inability of the fetus to breathe.

Second: if the baby with fetal distress syndrome is unable to breathe after clearing the respiratory tract, it will immediately carry out artificial respiration for the baby, or directly bring oxygen mask to the baby.

Third: if the baby with fetal distress is born with weak breathing and weak or no heartbeat, it is necessary to immediately press the heart outside the chest for the baby. The pressure must not be too strong. The baby is just born with fragile bones, so as to avoid fracture. To gently press, press three times to stop once, until the baby has a heartbeat.
