You are a few days away from finally meeting your baby. Most doctors and hospitals in India do not let the pregnancy continue beyond 41 weeks. After all the parameters of gestation period are checked, doctors continue to monitor the cervix for signs of ‘ripening’. If the cervix begins to thin out, then labor is generally induced through the membrane sweep. If all labor inducing methods fail, then a Caesarian section is the only way to safely deliver the baby.

Nursing in its essence is not simply a career as a medical care-giver but also a counselor, nutritionist, friend, psychiatrist, and so much more. A good nurse, in my opinion, helps their patients not just when they are physically hurting but also when they need mental help as well. They support their patients, listen to them even if just for a moment, so that they feel like they are more than just a person in a hospital bed but a human being. It is my belief that a good nurse holds both their…

Why should a baby not have the chance to live simply because of the poor choices…

egg is release per cycle and the cost of gestation and lactation are high. Meanwhile, males can produce large quantities of sperms each time they mate, and thus can virtually have as many offspring as they want. The male reproductive limit comes from their accessibility to mates (Gaulin and McBurney 2004). As a result, in humans the reproductive success of women is limited by their large physiological investment in producing the egg and enduring gestation, and the resources needed to provision…

During the 10 through 24 weeks of gestation , ridges form on your epidermis, which is the outermost layer of skin on your fingertips. This pattern on your epidermis is known as your fingerprint.

Throughout time people have struggled to fit in. Individuals try to match the latest trends, beliefs, and styles to keep themselves from getting ostracized by society. Nowadays, people like this are referred to as “hipsters” or mainstream. This can be looked as Orthodoxy versus Outcasts.

In the book, Brave New World, one of the most prominent themes is…
