I'll be having another home birth in 6 weeks or when Jr. decides to come. So in my own word's the baby's strive a lot better when the birthing process is not disrupted by the so called medical necessities. Let it be the natural process like it's intended to be, not a medical process and handling.

This provides for the time the newborn is adjusting to breathing air and prevents their brain from being deprived of oxygen.
Premature cord clamping and cutting deprives the newborn of this precious resource and can often result in their being taken to be artificially resuscitated. This interferes with the mother/baby bond, as well as being detrimental to the well being of the infant, who deserves every bit of oxygen and blood in their umbilical cord.

The duty is no harm done or the risk of it being caused an impairment. The only visual reason for any cord to be early tied, clamped, or finger-squeezed off is if the cord tore, as for a dropped infant, or for an accident such as a knife going into the placenta or the umbilical cord, or both. All other reasons are allegations and are fear factors the clamping done without all facts known, in most instances. The placenta blood trapped there by hasty cord clamping can be tested for its quality and compared to the infant's internal blood. The internal blood may be tested for its quality of pH, and anemic conditions of low red cells, low white cells, low platelet count, and low volume of plasma or fluids.
Medical information of weaker babies has been known before and since 1801 by the publication of Dr. Erasmus Darwin, who stated weaker babies who are hasty cord tied because more blood is trapped in the placenta that otherwise ought to have been inside the baby. This placenta blood is knowingly sought and practically used, and is sold for profits. Most parents do not give informed consent for hasty cord clamping. It is done as a suprise.
