2 Simulation of fetal heart sounds:
Use a finger to tap on the back part of the Skeleton
to simulate the desired heart rhythm.
3 Delivering NeoNatalie
a) Place your thumbs into the Uterus.
b) Push down on NeoNatalie’s body.
c) Assist the delivery by gently pulling the
straps with the push of NeoNatalie (this
will open the birth opening and make it
easier to deliver).
Tips for increased realism:
- For normal delivery, push directly on NeoNatalie’s chin. Deliver the rest of NeoNatalie by pushing onto
the body.
- For easier delivery lubricate NeoNatalie’s head with a few drops of water or baby oil before putting
NeoNatalie into the Uterus.
- During delivery, manipulate NeoNatalie as in a natural birth, for example by rotating the baby after
the head is delivered. This is done simply by holding onto NeoNatalie’s body inside the uterus, while
rotating the body as desired.
