Do You Have an Infected Baby?

There's a very high rate of fetal death if you just have an infected fetus that you don't treat. Foetuses that are infected are more likely to bleed into their brains, and which can cause permanent norologic injury. And so if we think there's an infection, delivery is really the best thing for both foetus and mother. But it doesn't mean we have to deliver the baby within five minutes. It's not a reason we have to do like a cesarian.
