| | Birth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Birth trauma is a theory in some branches of psychology and alternative medicine that the baby experiences extreme pain during the birthing process and that this pain influences the child later in life. | | | Birth pangs are the pains felt by the mother during labour, resulting from contractions of the uterus and pressure on nerves and organs. | | | Birth is the process in animals by which an offspring is expelled from the body of its mother. |

| | Most birth control methods are reversible—they do not affect a person’s ability to reproduce once the method is halted. | | | When no birth control is used, about 85 percent of sexually active couples experience a pregnancy within one year. | | | Other birth control methods involve behaviors that alter sexual activity in ways that lessen the chance for pregnancy. |

| | Birth Defects |
| | Many parents assume that all birth defects are severe or even fatal, but the fact is that many are treatable, often immediately after birth - and sometimes even before the baby is born. | | | A woman can do everything her doctor recommends to deliver a healthy child and still have a baby with a birth defect. | | | If you're like most expecting parents, you probably alternate between fantasies about a healthy baby and worries that your baby will have a health problem. |
