>>11295247I used to have a number of wall of citations about the effects of "early cord clamping", ie, clamping the cord before the completion of placental transfusion.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=early+umbilical+clampingI just picked a few that were familiar.

The rates were never high (5% vs 2% in a 10k sample size), they're easily treated with phototherapy, and it's known that the type of vitamin k they used to use caused jaundice, the hepatitis b vaccine can cause jaundice, pitocin can cause distress and jaundice. These confounders are never mentioned or controlled for.
