"I´m asking for a revolution in childbirth when I ask for the delay in clamping and cutting of the cord. We can´t talk about the Millenium Goal 4 (Reduce child mortality) unless we stop taking the blood of babies." --Robin Lim
Robin Lim – Life After Becoming a CNN Hero
.
"Now when (in most hospitals) you clamp and cut the cord immediately there is a tremendous loss of blood for the baby, nearly a third of the baby’s blood supply is cut off. It makes them anemic (here Robin explained a number of complications that arise later in life as a result). So that’s why our babies go immediately to the breast. The Italian doctor couldn’t believe it, he’d never seen a (newborn) baby so bright and in its body – just because his cord wasn’t cut straight away. But for example it clearly says in the lontar Bali (traditional Balinese scriptural texts) not to do that. It’s nothing new. We’re not asking people to do something new, we’re asking them to remember."
