Tiffany,
"Forceps use can cause bruising and nerve damage to the sides of the
infant cranium, causing the jaw to deviate to the paralyzed side when
the mouth is open"
Tappero, EP, Honeyfield ME 1993. Physical Assessment of the Newborn.
Petaluma, CA: NICUlinkBook Publishers.
Much discussion of forceps and vaccuum births can be found in Mary
Kroeger and Linda Smith's book, Impact of Birthing Practices on
Breastfeeding. I highly recommend it.
Brenda Phipps, BS, IBCLC
