good shape coming up, giving birth by this area. what are the pros and cons plus breast feeding? why many young mothers struggled. hello, and welcome to in good shape. my topic today is about one of the most fascinating events in our life. we've all gone through and talking about this worldwide on average, women has 2.6 babies, my wife and i have 2 kids. it's interesting to see whether we're pregnant is derived from different cultures in slavic languages. pregnant is connected with word burden in china. however, being pregnant means being lacky. and i'm lucky to because i am getting to meet doctor and n c stairs. she's a midwife and she helped to deliver more than $1200.00 babies over the years. and
2:03 am
she's taking care of families from more than 60 different countries. hello to nice to meet you and you were born in the us. you came to berlin 24 years ago in your midwife since 2001 again. yes. so how is it being in the life is thrilling? it's absolutely amazing. i love every day that i go to work. every birth is different. every woman is different. very unique, every family is different and being in a birth is something that just makes my joy grow more and more of the moment when the baby is born and then it really fills the room. and you can see yesterday i had an amazing birth and i'm still walking on close while after all those years. it's still amazing. absolutely. i think nearly everybody knows how to get pregnant. but and when does a pregnancy start actually? pregnancy can be different for a woman than what her doctor says. the doctor would say, pregnancy starts when you see that the heart is beating an embryo for a woman,
2:04 am
it could be that she feels pregnant before then that she knows that she's pregnant because her body is changing. some women actually only feel pregnant when they feel the baby move them. they are certainly pregnant. what actually happens in the room during pregnancy? when do the head, shoulders, neath and toes develop in the embryonic stage? let's take a look at what is hidden from our eyes. this is one of the smallest human cells. and this is the biggest, a female over or excel is even visible to the naked eye. male sperm cells, however, are tiny, though they can still travel hundreds of times their own length and only a minute. over a 1000000000 sperm cells can be released during a single jackie lation, but only the fastest will fertilize the eggs. when a sperm endlessly over, they combined to form the basis for a new human being. by the time 30 hours have elapsed, the fertilized bank has divided into 2 cells. inside 3 days, there are 16,
2:05 am
and they keep on dividing. as soon as low ball shaped blast assist attaches itself to the woman's uterus membrane. she releases hormones which condition her body for pregnancy. they ensure instance that no more eggs, right? but in the meantime, that's why a mist period can be the 1st clear sign of pregnancy. but the hormonal readjustments can also cause nausea. in the early weeks, the press center and villa concord form connecting the embryo with the mother's circulation and metabolism until birth. it's now high time to drop habits harmful to the child, like drinking alcohol and smoking. next, the initial signs of a brain and spinal marrow up here, the heart begins beating, but form which grow into limbs and digits. the fetus gradually take shape
2:06 am
with the 1st 12 weeks are the most critical and a pregnancy during which 80 percent of all miscarriages take place. usually because the fetus doesn't develop correctly, growth accelerates from week 13 on the fetus takes up more space, leaving less room for the mother's organs. she may suffer shortness of breath or backache as a result. survival rates for premature babies increased dramatically from the 24th week on the children. born at this stage, have a lot of catching up to do. the fetus still weighs less than half the average child born at full term. but that changes rapidly around 4 weeks before birth, the baby inverts its position in the womb to head down. the signal for birth is thought to come from the child. as soon as its lungs are fully developed, the combination of proteins and the mother's hormones trigger the powerful spasms
2:07 am
of labor. then it's only a matter of hours before a brand new human being emerges into the light of its 1st new day. when women announce that they are pregnant, they got a lot of advice from friends, but not every advice holds true there, lot of miss. so that's asking professional about all the kids, mis, number one pregnant women have to eat for 2. this is an old wives tale. ok, this isn't true. women should not eat for 2 during pregnancy. they should think for 2. they should eat fruits that are healthier. what they shouldn't eat for 2. in the 1st 3 months of pregnancy, they should only need $100.00 calories more per day. in the last 3 months, the pregnancy only for $100.00 more calories per day. miss number 2, if the mother to be has a round belly, it will be a girl. if she has a pointed belly, it will be your boy. is this true or not true? a woman who is smaller, she doesn't have as much space between her diaphragm and between her pelvis. so her
2:08 am
belly's going to be more here, more forward, more in front of her. for women whose taller it could be that her belly looks a little bit smaller. even though her baby is bigger than the belly of the woman who smaller miss number 3, in some cultures, people believe that the baby is dirty after birth. you see any truth about this? this is absolutely a myth. babies are not dirty when they're born. they're born out of a sterile environment. it's very important after birth that babies aren't bathed in the 1st 24 hours. we know that from the world health organization, many mothers don't pay their babies for the 1st few days after birth rate. a baby smell is very important to give the woman cues for breast feeding and for bonding with her baby, especially in the 1st 2 hours after birth, it's very important that the baby is together with another lying skin to skin and has the opportunity to breastfeed. miss number 4. in some cultures,
2:09 am
people want the 1st born child to be a boy and some belief that women are responsible for the child sex. the woman is absolutely not responsible. if it's going to be a boy or if it's going to be a girl, i've heard from some families i've taken care of here in berlin. the women believe that if they pray hard enough, or if they do some kind of purification ritual before they get pregnant, that they can have a boy because that's what their family hopes for them to have. but this isn't true . it's actually the man who's the deciding factor. this firm either has an x chromosome or y chromosomes. do you know which oregon is usually this size. the uterus, for uterus is the place where the embryo and later the fetus develops on death. during this time, this organ is like a busy man working 247 and it has real superpowers. ah, it's pretty remarkable how much can happen in 9 months. in a woman's belly and embryo grows to the size of a baby,
2:10 am
and its home grows along with it, the uterus. before pregnancy, the uterus is smaller than a pair and weighs around 60 grams. but has already please a major role in conception. in the neck of the uterus or service gland to produce what's called cervical mucus. during occupation, the mucus protects sperm cells and guides them to the 8th. at the same time, the hormones, progesterone and estrogen cause the mucous membrane of the uterus, or, and dmitri to become more viscous, so that a fertilized egg can implants. during the following 12 weeks, the placenta develops and independent organ that ensures the developing child's needs are supplied via the umbilical cord that waste is removed. in its little chamber, the fetus has its own survival system. as soon as a fertilized egg is attached to the end, dimitria, the uterus begins to grow and grow and grow. hormones like
2:11 am
estrogen steer this growth to ensure the baby has enough space. by the end of a pregnancy, the uterus is almost the size of 2 soccer balls, 20 times larger than before pregnancy. ah, the uterus is active to the very end. during labor, its muscles contract rhythmically to force that out through the vagina, which now functions as the birth canal. after birth, the uterus begins shrinking again by about one centimeter a day loose for relax ation. after 9 months of hard labor, the pregnancy is a very exciting time, but sometimes a difficult time as well. so and are there any tips what a women can do to feel accommodated? absolutely, women are very tired in the beginning or pregnancy and also again at the end, they should definitely get the rest that they need. and this might mean taking
2:12 am
a nap in the afternoon or going to bed early and in what can department of family do? well, the partner family, friends, they should know that women's emotions are a little bit more than they are when a woman is not pregnant. so maybe if she's angry, she'll seem angry or, or if she said she seems sad or she can also be more joyful than she is at other times it's really important that these people who are close to the woman that they don't take her emotions personally and think that they've done something wrong. okay, and are there any professional tips concerning the right nutrition for sure, thrilling, important that women get enough to drink during pregnancy and that they especially don't drink drinks that have a lot of sugar in them. coca cola is not good to drink, drink pregnancy, for example. better to drink water, or to drink teams that don't have any sweetener in them. and any absolute strict, no growth and pregnancy that also is problematic for women who smoke, for example, the baby can be a little bit smaller. it's not healthy. if a woman smoking,
2:13 am
she also shouldn't take drugs and she shouldn't drink alcohol. i have a great idea. why don't you write me about health issues and your idea to share in good shape your weekly health show and d, w covers many aspects of health care. we look at what's new and medical treatment, nutrition, fitness and beauty. we discussed the topics in depth with specialists and give you the chance to pose your own questions. so do get in touch with we just talked a lot about pregnancy. let's focus a bit on the birth. so how can women prepare for this big moment? i think it's really important that women read and listened to positive stories about birth. there are many, many more positive stories about good burst and there are these terrible story. so women should definitely stay away from these terrible stories that they might hear
2:14 am
during pregnancy and look for books and maybe even look for friends who had good birth experiences. and what should they actually expect? most women have some fear when they go into labor. they have those 1st contractions and then they're not sure what's going to happen. i always tell women to bring that . sure with them. they should discuss that fear for sure with their midwife or their doctor or whoever is taking care of them at birth. in addition to that, they should expect joy and they should always remember between contractions that giving birth is actually something quite wonderful, quite miraculous. and that in the end, when they have that baby in their arms, that's a very joyful experience. so you very experienced professionals, do you have some special tips for the women? absolutely. i think it's so important that women actually get to know their baby during pregnancy. and when i say that, i don't mean that they get to know their baby by looking at an ultrasound picture or image. they should get to know the actual babies that they're going to give birth to the baby that's going to be their child. so during pregnancy they should
2:15 am
take some time every day in the morning in the evening. doesn't matter where they are in the park. they can do this at work or at home, put their hands on their belly closed, their eyes breathe deeply and just feel their baby feel how their baby is moving. this is how they can get to know their baby, and this is how they can best prepare themselves for for pregnancy. and then for birth and for motherhood. about $100.00. $35000000.00 babies born every single year and most of them come virtually every 3rd baby is born via is c section called c very infection. in brazil it's every 2nd baby c section, a very important from the medical standpoint. but if you don't meet them medically, should think twice about having them because after all, it is a procedure. it is dangerous, not only for the mother, but even for the child. a baby is about to be born via c section. the mother's
2:16 am
abdomen is cleaned with an antiseptic under surgical drape is put in place. so make sure the regional anesthetic is working. the mother is wide awake. she doesn't feel any pain. i don't have lot slips. i'm, we're off. the surgeon makes the incision and a baby girl is born. oh, i leave, i was not. i think it's a quick and relatively stress free birth to the child. but when with potential long term consequences to health, more recent studies have been investigating the longer term effect services areas. bath pediatrician, dominique sing, is familiar with the research is taught firstly,
2:17 am
so we now know the baby is delivered by c 2nd end up with very different intestinal bacteria compared to children who are delivered by vaginal birth needed by kinda not enough time. that comes as no surprise to gynecologist could hasha. he says that when a baby policy is through the birth canal it's bathed in the mother's microbes. then i get boil and often the duly. when babies are born in vaginal delivery to come into contact with mothers, natural micro biome, because that's the normal course of things. and then the so their immune systems are activated in a different way in a fit and under the tree go home and cognition. it compared to us is very and a vaginal bass is more stressful for the baby, but that stress is also useful because stress hormones help the newborn adjust to life outside the womb. they help clear the pulmonary l. v. o lie the little s sacks in the lungs of amniotic
2:18 am
fluid, so the newborn can breeze. the stress of labor is also believed to help the liver unlock its energy reserves, which the newborn can draw on when the umbilical cord is cuts. then there are other microbes, the baby encounters in the birth canal which help colonize the baby's gastro intestinal tract. that yes, contact this 1st contact with syria allows a particular micro biome to develop the newborns. gosh, this newborns have a characteristic micro biome because you august was on the baby's born by says area and aren't exposed to the birth canal. yes. so they end up with a different micra. yes. but need to know the stock on this feed car wash and if you know in one study, research is analyzed still samples of nearly 600 newborns. they found that babies born by c section tended to lack certain strains of healthy, got bacteria,
2:19 am
including back to royalties. the gum subsea section babies were dominated by opportunistic bacteria such as enter a caucus and to road back to and club c l a which circulating hospitals. but the study didn't look at whether these differences affect the child's long term house. but on other things, short wise, is that what we do suspect? the link between us is arion birth and what we call diseases of civilization, so to speak, specifically includes diseases linked to gut micro biotech like intestinal diseases, long diseases, uncertain conditions which survive. studies have found links to chronic bronchitis, a d, h, d under base a t in the 1st 8 years of a child's life and to re spirit treat diseases. it's possible other factors explain this might be increased risk. so more research needs to be done. this month,
2:20 am
like why the dam flew by that. so going to meet with you. and we do believe that micro biotech are important for the development of our immune system. and he put us up, we as his team this call us on by because we're spiritual illnesses, an asthma have to do with the immune system with him up as a team. it's possible that there's a cold link for mircle is that here i and the answer is i'm hung casala bits younger steve, a handful of clinics have experimented with what is called feeding. trying to give newborns born by c section, some bacteria from the mother to recreate what would normally happen in the birth canal. but so far, no study has supported this practice. what is clear is that breastfeeding as good for got my crypt biotech breastmilk promotes exactly the kind of bacteria that belong in the incense in testing the contact with kent. the
2:21 am
close contact between mother and child helps transfer. the micro biome during nursing. breastmilk is not their duties and that also transfer some of the mothers micro biotech says arians can be necessary and even like saving the w h o says that's true for between 10 and 15 percent of best worldwide today. those c section rates the fall higher than that in many countries to rest street on not to breastfeed. that's always the question. many women love to breast feed out of don't perhaps because they can from a medical standpoint. but one thing is clear of breast feeding is great for the baby. and the milk comes pre packed steroids and well temperature. 5 months ago nina gave birth to my 2nd baby. she has experience with breast feeding and everything's going well with henry bus with our 1st son, james,
2:22 am
who is now 3 years old. it was difficult for getting that started pretty soon after the bus stop the 1st or 2nd 19 hospital. they kept weighing him and they told me he wasn't putting on enough weight and they needed to keep an eye on that. and i was already breastfeeding. pretty much round the clock student still exhausted from the birth, she quickly felt overwhelmed. the language pronounced. i think with tennis and stressful, and when jane started losing weight, they said they'd give him extra food. and that's when we started to wonder what to do. whether breastfeeding would still work to club to some student by nina was determined to breastfeed and was disappointed by the advice to get her baby a bottle. still, she agreed to do it, but then she started to worry that her son wouldn't want to be breast fed at all any more covered and i've got sugar medicine. i soon noticed that james wasn't
2:23 am
drinking as well anymore. it happened far from my source. if i want to keep breast feeding, then we need to ensure that things change from the moon the, the snow was not worldwide less than half of all infants on the 6 months of breast fed exclusively, which is what the world health organization recommends. that's because it reduces the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. diarrhea, ear infections overweight and type 2 diabetes and for the mother, breast feeding reduces the risk of varian, breast, and endo material cancer and cardiovascular disease. at this clinic, a mother gave birth to twins 9 weeks prematurely. one of the babies are still an intensive care. it's especially important that this little guy is breast fed. the pediatrician asks them of how things are going and whether she's getting enough
2:24 am
help at the clinic. yeah, sure what she says she is, but that the staff tend to be pretty busy if you have the amount of support that mothers get is just one factor that determines to what extent breastfeeding is encouraged in any given country. compared internationally, germany is only mediocre on that school. is able to legally so much refitting what our shorts will be very good maternity protection for working mothers, better than many other european countries are going. but there are several areas where we could improve a loss, and helping with breastfeeding is one of them. we quoted hospitals and an encouraging more social acceptance to kansas, which i'm not sure you can do these types of still difficult for women to breastfeed and public. it should be a matter of course that mothers can breastfeeding a cafe or subway without getting strange look on, on the spot on the corporate. when women give birth prematurely,
2:25 am
that breastmilk is often not sufficient during the 1st few days of the baby's life . so it's important to have donated milk to fall back on clinics, often have breast milk bags where mothers can donate their surplus milk for youth by others. honestly the one we're currently giving donated breastmilk to old premature babies that weigh less than a 1000 grams and are less than the pregnancy week. we'd love to feed all babies under 1500 grams, but unfortunately, current storage capacity and donation levels don't allow for that big light. i missed. my studies shows that donated breast milk is better than commercially produce baby feed, which is usually based on cow's milk. ah, every drop is incredibly precious and the breast milk bank has made all the stuff very much aware of that. so death, emma, whenever a mother is unable to produce milk and sand about that everyone is immediately
2:26 am
committed to helping and advising these women. in the top to bottom. when i move staff at the hospital advise new mothers on how to ensure that babies are feeding properly and they're on hand to answer their questions. the extra help in the clinic is having an effect. many more women are now managing to breast feed that babies on their own after they go home. doctors here say improved professional support for breast feeding mothers and more acceptance in society isn't too much to us on such an important matter and could make a huge difference in school. today there's a lot more awareness amongst the general public. the breastfeeding of the good things is dealing with and many women are proud to be able to breastfeed, which they should be from phyllis. we've achieved a lot, but there's still room for more clear steps that we could take to move forward. going on, the mina says, manage to battle highway through with james,
2:27 am
