Induction with pitocin, early clamping of the umbilical cord, vitamin K injection, circumcision. With pitocin in particular (or cesarean + epidural) a lot of force is put on the infant's neck and head. Though the skull is capable of some deformation, the cervical spine is not. Being grabbed by the head, or having the head slam repeatedly against a birth canal which is not prepared, can result in the atlas (C1 veterbrae) being misaligned outside the normal range. If this is so it can affect everything from proprioception (I/O to cerebellum), to autonomic functions, gait, blood flow and CSF drainage, etc. The frontal lobes and the cerebellum are coupled, when one activates, the other also activates. Therefore if it's compressed or otherwise receiving poor input from the body, there will be less activation of the frontal lobes, and you get things like ADHD. The most likely autonomic fiber to be compressed is the vagus nerve, which is part of the parasympathetic. If it isn't function you have poor blood pressure regulation, digestion, and response to stress. If you have poor digestion you'll have poor flora, higher gut permeability, and food will be apt to putrify because it's moving too slowly through the gut (intestinal trnsit time is high or labile). This will disrupt global brain function as well. Early clamping of the umbilical cord has been standard practice since the 50's, and remains so in many places despite numerous papers showing it has no benefits and causes brain damage. Brain myelination was found to be lower both 4 and 12 months after birth in the early clamped group, in a human clinical trial. It shouldn't be surprising given that they were basically deprived of oxygen and CO2 elimination, 1/3 of their blood volume, their iron stores, and the stem cells which repair damage after delivery. They take the cord blood and placenta and sell the stem cells. Same thing they do with the foreskin.

Oh did you think you were a human being? You are an implement with a predicted expectation of economic production.
