Meconium aspiration (newborn respiratory problem)

Meconium is the first stool of the newborn, and is green in color. Meconium aspiration occurs when the newborn breathes in this green material at the time of delivery resulting in damage to the lungs and breathing difficulties. Not all babies who breathe in meconium suffer lung damage. The following conditions increase the likelihood of this disorder: pregnancy beyond 40 weeks gestation, decreased oxygen to the baby during delivery, a difficult delivery, mothers with high blood pressure, and mothers with diabetes.
