Low blood oxygen, decreased delivery of oxygen to the body's tissues, and/or decreased flow of oxygen-rich blood to the body's tissues can predispose a newborn baby to periventricular leukomalacia.

Besides the new healthcare plan? A new born baby should not be giving birth for several years, so I would say there is no complications to be concerned about.

Are pregnant women more at risk of getting swine flu?

Not really if they are otherwise healthy, especially if they get their flu vaccinations as recommended by the OB/GYN associations. They are, however, at higher risk of having complications, sometimes serious complications, once they have the flu. See the related questions below for more information about the importance of getting your flu vaccinations in pregnancy, and also who is at higher risk, besides pregnant women, for complications of the flu. Flu vaccinations not only protect you from getting the flu and risking the higher rate of complications of the flu in pregnant women, but also protect your fetus and newborn. Your newborn is without a mature and fully functioning immune system until 6 months old. Until then, the infant relies on your antibodies from breast milk and your antibodies from your blood during gestation to protect them from infectious diseases.


Can a person with A negative and a person with A positive have a healthy baby?

It depends. If there mother is the A negative type, and it is found that the newborn baby is Rh positive, they will give the mother Rh immune globulin(Rhogam), in order to prevent her from developing anti-D antibodies. That is, if she does not already have anti-D antibodies. If the mother does have anti-D antibodies, it may cause complications if the baby is Rh positive. If rhogam is given, then there should be no complications. If the mother is A positive, then I don't believe there should be any complications.
