The most vital requirement for the infant promptly after birth is an unmistakable aviation route to empower the infant to inhale successfully since the placenta has stopped to work as an organ of gas exchange. It is with the support of sufficient oxygen supply through viable breath that the survival of the infant enormously depends. Infants are mandatory nose breathers. The reflex reaction to the nasal deterrent, opening the mouth to look after aviation route, is absent in many babies until 3 weeks after birth. The fruitful change of a foetus, which is inundated in the amniotic liquid and absolutely subject to the placenta for nourishment and oxygen, to a crying, the air-breathing child is a wellspring of ponder. Healthy babies (age birth to 1 month) and new born children (age 1 month to 1 year) require great care to guarantee their ordinary improvement and proceeded with wellbeing.
