See your doctor: I am sorry about what happend to your son. I know you have a lot of questions about what may have happened. Your son's doctor has much more detailed informaiton on your son and it would be the best source of information on his condition.

Speculation: CP is defined as a disorder of movement & posture related to an injury of the developing nervous system.Data show that more than half happen in mothers with normal pregnancy/labor/delivery's.A fetus grabbing the umbilical cord and slowing blood flow (which can starve nerve cells), other events that shift circulation,etc.We can only speculate.Most could not be prevented.Bad stuff happens sometimes
