How do you organise the ”well baby checks” from the delivery / maternity unit?
In USA, it is common practice to see babies daily, since birth. If delivered Vaginally , these babies get discharged along with mother in 2 days and if c-section delivery then 3 days.

Hipotony in one extremity . Brachial plexus paralysis
Brachial plexus injury during difficult delivery usually resolves on it's own. We observe it clinically and if no improvement seen in first week, then we consider physiotherapy and Neurology consult. I didn't had any baby not improving spontaneously for last so many years... all of those babies improved rapidly in their own.

Medication for Intubation - How do you do it
I use IV low dose Midazolam and low dose IV Fentanyl ....or Low dose Lorazepam IV and low dose IV Vecuronium. Either of combination works well. I do not use any of these medications if baby is already depressed and not active for age because those babies do not resist much if at all since their muscles are already not having little to no tone.
