P00.8: Fetus and newborn affected by other maternal conditions
Damage to health occurred while in the womb or shortly after the birth.
The child's health can be damaged if the mother has health problems. Certain disorders in the mother, for example, can affect how the child develops in the womb. During the pregnancy and birth, for example, pathogens may have been transmitted from the mother to the child. Medical interventions on the mother may also damage the child's health.
