//////Niece stitched too far & later repaired. ////
No big deal.
//////Baby caught infection at nieces repair time & now has fits./////
Too early to say if this indicates a big deal or not.
The fits could be due to brain damage following a difficult forceps delivery.
The fits certainly could be due to an infection .
There are also many other causes and it is a matter of treating the infection and then waiting to see what happens.

No.
Are you thinking that by cutting the mother during delivery the mother got infected and the bleeding passed this infection to the baby whilst the baby was being born?
Or that the delivery was so difficult that the hard use of forceps caused an infection and / or brain injury?
Did the baby get an infection when the mother was being repaired some time after the birth?

Post natal inspection of babe (2+ week) mother in pain from vagina. Nurse said vagina needs stitches removed in the practice, not home. mum takes healthy baby with her to practice & baby now has fits. Baby on antibiotics. Mum can only sit on rubber ring.
I dont know med termanology but this is how sis explained to me. The stitching is like tightening a vagina.

fits under the age of six months is common/not unknown
Paeds are full of it
stay with the Paed
as the gt sqad says - not connected to infected over-repair
easy stuff: Common causes of neonatal fits include hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy, intracranial haemorrhage, intracranial infections, congenital cerebral malformations, metabolic disorders, and focal ischaemic stroke.12 Sep 2012 BMJ
Jean Aicardi for example wrote 2 000 pages on it ( no really)
Diseases of the Nervous System in Childhood
by Jean Aicardi
top of the list is hypoxia at birth
it has a particular distribution on MRI scan (PVL)
and so you may discuss that with the paed ( who will NOT have delivered the baby if you get my meaning)
and I dont care if all and every ABer says
foo wot all dis mean?
