Nurse Films The Rare Moment A Baby Is Born Inside A Fully Intact Amniotic Sac

JSADev1

As an unborn baby grows inside the protective membrane of his or her mother’s amniotic sac, the sac typically bursts on its own, causing the mother’s water to break. The baby you’re about to meet, however, was not born the traditional way and if you’re able to stomach it, you’re in for a miraculous surprise.

The following footage was recently recorded in a hospital in Spain. It captures the rare moment that a baby is born within a fully intact amniotic sac, just minutes after its twin was delivered normally. This is also known as an “en caul” birth, as the word “caul” means “helmeted head” or “veil.”

En caul births are very rare and are estimated to occur in one in every 80,000 births, possibly even fewer.

Curled up in a ball on the hospital table, the baby can be seen making subtle movements and slight motions, and you can clearly see the blue umbilical cord also inside the sac. Doctors and nurses are gathered around the baby, and it’s clear even they are in awe of the medical miracle laying right in front of their eyes.

I can only imagine what it was like to break the baby out of the sac and to see the moment the twins meet outside of the womb.

Note: This video contains graphic imagery that may be disturbing to some viewers.

Cabinet approves increase in maternity leave from 12 to 26 weeks

The Union Cabinet on Wednesday approved the Maternity Benefit (Amendment) Bill, 2016, which will increase the paid maternity leave from 12 weeks to 26 weeks, PTI reported. The amendment is likely to help around 1.8 million women working in the organised sector. The Bill will be tabled in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday.

For the first time, those adopting a newborn and mothers who are babies through surrogacy will also be entitled to three months’ paid maternity leave. Besides this, the amendment made the provision of crèches mandatory for establishments that have 50 or more employees. According to The Hindu, the proposed amendment also “facilitates work from home”.

The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961, entitles women to fully paid leave of absence after giving birth. It is applicable in all establishments that have more than 10 employees.

U. S. Surrogacy Laws Expected To Change, But The Battle Has Not Been Won Yet

JSADev1

New York surrogacy laws are up for revamp, following the efforts of a Manhattan senator who chose Los Angeles surrogacy for the surrogate-friendly laws. Go to Los AngelesSurrogacy.org or call (310) 359-9640 for info on becoming a surrogate or intended parent in Los Angeles.

San Luis Obispo, United States of America – August 12, 2016 /PressCable/ —

Los Angeles’s favorable surrogacy laws may soon spread across the nation. The Golden State is known as one of the most progressive areas in the country for people hoping to expand their families via surrogacy. Unlike other parts of the country, intended parents have the ability to establish parental rights before a baby is born and contracts can be written that protect both the intended parents and the gestational surrogate.

To learn more about the surrogacy process, call (310) 359-9640 or visit Los AngelesSurrogacy.org.

Los Angeles is a popular destination for intended parents, drawing people from other parts country and across the globe. While numerous countries have been cracking down on the practice, such as Australia, India, Mexico, and Thailand, Los Angeles has revamped its laws to make the surrogacy process safer for everyone. In America, each state sets its own guidelines. Arizona has a law that makes “surrogate parent contracts” illegal and, in Indiana, they’re deemed “void and unenforceable.” Washington D.C. has some of the strictest laws in the U.S., which includes fines of as much as $10,000 or prison time for anyone who attempts to enter into a written agreement.

New York’s laws are unique in that they do not outright ban surrogacy, nor does the state have any rules against contracts. However, any form of commercial surrogacy is completely forbidden. Individuals, agencies, and lawyers who become involved could face legal consequences. On the other hand, New York does allow “compassionate surrogacy,” in which the gestational carrier does not receive any compensation. Despite this, there are no laws on the books that protect the rights of intended parents. The gestational carrier is the legal mother of the child, even if she has no biological ties to him. To further complicate things, the state also assumes the woman’s husband is the father of the baby, even in cases of surrogacy. Intended parents must either petition the courts for rights and prove they have a biological relationship to the child or go through the court system as an adoption.

Visit Los AngelesSurrogacy.org or call (310) 359-9640 to register as an intended parent or to become a gestational surrogate in Los Angeles.

New York’s laws may be revamped, in order to make them more like Los Angeles’s, as well as more friendly for those in gay marriages. The bill that might change it all was introduced by Senator Brad Hoylman and is known as the “Child-Parent Security Act.” It’s a cause that’s dear to Hoylman, as his own daughter was born with the help of a Los Angeles surrogate. Back in 2014, he and his husband David Segal remarked about what a magical experience the birth was, with both fathers being present to hold the baby and cut the cord. This moment could not have happened in New York, and still could not, based on the laws today.

The New York Post recently revealed insider information that could be a total game changer. “The governor’s Task Force on Life and the Law is quietly looking at lifting the prohibition,” the news agency said. Although this is the early stages, experts believe that New York’s change in stance could be the start of a trend, with more states updating their laws to accommodate the needs of their citizens.

Adorable Baby Gets Photobombed By His Future Self In Hilarious Photo

JSADev1

A dad was walking up and down the huge aisles of his local Costco when he noticed something rather strange in the distance. When he finally realized what he was looking at, it must have been quite the shock, but this man knew what to do in order to prove what he was saying was actually happening.

He snapped the photo, and Reddit userA_OBCD8663uploaded a picture that would go as viral as Chewbacca Mom! And though it might take a few seconds to notice, when you see it, you won’t be able to stop smiling either!

It seems as if this little boy knows exactly how to control time, but unlike in Back to the Future, he won’t need a fancy car or mad scientist to figure out the way back. He’ll just need to find an old Costco store to wait in for the moment his past-self walks by with his dad.

Please check out the hilarious little picture below, and you’ll see how time travel hasfinallybeen proven!

Dad was shopping at his local Costco and enjoying the nice air-conditioning when he looked up and saw something pretty spooky! He quickly got out his camera and managed to capture a photobomb for the ages!

YouTube / Caters TV

A photobomb is when you think you’re taking a regular picture, but something crazy happens behind the initial subject that ends up being more interesting or funny!

While the man in this photo is certainly nice, that big whale tells a much more interesting story!

And this proposal photo is cute and all, but there’s something hilarious about the alpaca’s interest in the camera!

Or this viral hit. Mom was taking maternity photos when Dad decided to make a joke that people couldn’t help but share!

But when Dad saw someone photobombing his baby, he knew he had to snap a photo as quickly as possible. That’s because it seems as if this one photo proves that time travel isn’t only possible, but it’s already happening!

Facebook / Back To The Future

And instead of having to drive 88 mph, it seems all he had to do was take a trip to his local Costco. Hopefully his Costco membership stayed updated, though!

Reddit / A_OBCD8663

“I guess I know what my son will look like in 70 years…” Dad said.

See the man in green sitting behind him? We never knew it was possible to photobomb yourself, but it seems like if you have the technology for time travel, you can definitely do it!

Hopefully,Dad ended up talking to this guy or at least getting his information, because this silly moment is going viral, and the whole family will certainly cherish this memory for generations to come.

Legal implications of surrogacy

JSADev1

My partner and I cannot have a child naturally and want to consider surrogacy. What legal issues must I consider?

Surrogacy is the process by which a child is carried through pregnancy by a woman who has entered into an arrangement that the child and parental responsibility for it will be transferred to another person(s) at birth. Surrogacy arrangements are often attractive to heterosexual couples who are experiencing infertility, and same-sex couples.

Whilst surrogacy is legal in the UK, commercial surrogacy is not. No money or benefit must be given or received under the arrangement, other than for expenses.

One of the first issues to consider is whether to enter into a partial or total surrogacy arrangement. Partial surrogacy is the process whereby the surrogate mother is also the child’s biological mother. The child will be biologically related to the father (or sperm donor) and the surrogate mother.

In contrast, total surrogacy is where the woman carrying the child is not biologically related to the child. The embryo is carried by the surrogate and can be created from:

A genetic mother’s egg and genetic father’s (or donor’s) sperm.

A donor egg and genetic father’s sperm.

A donor egg and donor sperm.

Another important issue to consider is where to enter into the surrogacy arrangement. If you choose an international surrogate, it is vital that you seek specialist advice.

The surrogate mother (whether or not biologically related) is treated as the child’s legal mother until the court makes a court order in favour of the commissioning parents. The surrogate mother cannot simply surrender her parental responsibility. If the surrogate mother is married, the husband of the surrogate mother will be treated as the father of the child.

The permanent transfer of legal parenthood and parental responsibility to the commissioning parents can only be brought about by the making of an ‘adoption order’ or a ‘parental order’.

The application for a parental order must be made within six months of the child’s birth. The applicants must be aged at least 18 years old and either be married, in a civil partnership, or in an enduring family relationship (i.e. living together as a couple). Furthermore, at least one of the commissioning parents must have provided the genetic material used to create the embryo. Finally, the surrogate mother (and her husband, if applicable) must give free and unconditional agreement to the order being made.
