WHAT IS L&P DEVELOPMENT?
A procedure in which a healthcare provider tucks the umbilicus of a newborn’s cord stump under the baby’s arm to prevent air from entering the baby’s lungs and causing an embolism. It is also known as amniocentesis, cord insertion (CI) or umbilical artery insertion (UAI).
BENEFITS OF L&P DEVELOPMENT:
Here are some of the benefits of l&p development that healthcare professionals can have when they perform this procedure:
1. It helps regulate breathing. The l&p development procedure prevents the baby from taking in air and with this, the baby may not need ventilating, which reduces the risk of brain damage and oxygen deprivation, hence reducing chances of complications.
How can you get started with l&p development
L&P Development is described as a procedure in which you tuck the umbilicus of your newborn’s cord stump under their armpit to prevent air from entering their lungs and cause an embolism. It has recently gained popularity and is being used on newborns in hospitals.
L&P Development is described by some parent’s birth centers as the World’s Most Amazing Childbirth Invention since it can save lives in places where there is a shortage of medical staff. According to them, it will eventually be used on all births, but for now only for infants born at home (not hospitals or birth centers.) It has also been promoted at public events.
There is a website that explains how to do this and lists websites of organizations, hospitals, and birth centers that support L&P Development and also have videos in which mothers share their experiences with it.
It seems to be gaining popularity, but if you are wondering whether or not you should use it, we hope that this article can help you make a decision.
What is L&P Development?
L&P Development is an alternative to the storage of cord blood or umbilical cord blood banking. It can be used if the newborn’s mother doesn’t want to store their baby’s umbilical cord blood, which has a rich supply of stem cells.
What are some of the challenges associated with l&p development
The procedure is not recommended for premature infants and mothers who have given birth at home. Another issue is that there might be a possibility of the baby being strangled by their umbilical cord if it is wrapped around their neck or wrapped too tightly. If done incorrectly, the procedure may increase the risk of an umbilical hernia, a cruch on the umbilical cord or a strangulation.
The procedure is still popular in countries such as China where it is performed as a rite of passage for young girls. There are even websites that allow pregnant women to choose whether or not they wish to have the l&p. They are also referred to as “l&p factories” and “l&p farms”. The procedure is typically done by a midwife at home, but can also be performed if trained by an obstetrician-gynecologist. Women may even ask for a specific date to be scheduled for the procedure. Several human rights organizations have spoken out against the practice, but it is still widely performed in China.

How to overcome these challenges
The first step is to cool the baby down by wrapping them in a wet towel or tissue. The procedure can be done with the help of a health care provider. Make sure you are close to the hospital even before you go deliver so that you are certain of how to carry out this procedure by yourself or with your partner in case it becomes necessary. Put on rubber gloves and sterilize the area with disinfectant. Use a medical clamp and wrap it around the cord. Start cutting the cord from its umbilicus. Put on pressure and cut straight down, just like you would when you are cutting the plastic wrap off of a bagel.
The next thing that needs to be done is to put the baby on its side and roll it in a ball. The head should face downwards. Try pushing the hand of the dryer into the baby’s anus and put a bandage on its head. This will help stop blood circulation in the cord. If you think that more oxygen is needed, you can pour warm water over them. If you are still unsure about cutting it, then take it to your health care provider for assistance.
If the baby gets bunchy, then make it a point to rub their back and make it cry. Also, if you have doubts about how the procedure is being conducted, then get in touch with your doctor.

The future of l&p development
Since the procedure has gained popularity recently, researchers are still studying it to determine its benefits and whether or not it is safe. But, it is still an interesting procedure worth considering if you want to ensure your newborn’s health. When dealing with traditional Chinese medicine, the value of clinic procedures is determined by their popularity and reliability, as well as by the specialties of practitioners. The written record of medical treatment in ancient China can be traced back to 3,000 years ago. In ancient China, many procedures were performed on patients nearly every day. Chiao-shih (traditional Chinese medicine), for instance, was very popular in ancient China and was practiced until about 100 years ago. The value of the procedure is determined by how effective it is for the patient. This type of traditional Chinese medicine was practiced by a lot of people. Now, many research labs and pharmaceutical companies have started to study traditional Chinese medicine and their procedures. This is the reason why this type of treatment has drawn public attention.
