After that, is Dr. Mohammed Rafi Feizal’s lecture on Emergency Child Birth. He thought us how to help a mother to deliver a baby. And how to remove the umbilical cord after the delivery from the mother and baby. Just for your information, helping mother to deliver and removing the umbilical cord required lots of experience and skills because sometime baby might be stuck in the middle of delivery so Dr. Mohammed say we should all pray that these case will not happen around us^^
