Can you give any clearer idea of what birth canal squeezing does for human babies?

(3,806 posts)The Squeeze Through the Birth Canal: A Crucial Transition
The journey through the birth canal is not just a passage; itβs a process that readies the baby for the outside world. The squeezing initiates a cascade of events, from expelling fluid from the lungs to creating pressure for the first breath. This transition triggers dramatic changes in the circulatory system, setting the stage for a new life and further relying on the nervous system to properly regulate.

So truly, thank you for taking the time to post these incredible nature videos for us to watch.
