Answer:
Cerebral palsy usually occurs due to brain injury during a baby’s development in the womb or during delivery. This condition may have no immediate signs; however, as the baby grows, the parents may notice a marked delay in reaching developmental milestones, problems with formulating proper speech as well as disrupted motor function.
Cerebral palsy may be directly attributed to negligence on a doctor or healthcare giver’s part before and during birth. Incorrect fetal monitoring as well as forceful and traumatic delivery may lead to brain swelling and infection which interferes with normal brain development and function.
