It's a girl! It's...going off for its <a href="http://www.lilsugar.com/2417029" >APGAR test</a>! So many new mothers are in a state of bliss upon welcoming their child into the world that when it comes time for the newborn to undergo his APGAR (Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, Respiration) test, she hardly wants to let him go. Truth be told, it all happens within the babe's first five minutes of life so many parents don't even notice his quick removal for a few fleeting moments.

Do you know what your babe scored on his APGAR test?</p> http://www.lilsugar.com/3535692#comment Getty newborns Tell Mommy APGAR test Tue, 21 Jul 2009 10:00:48 -0700 babysugar http://www.lilsugar.com/3535692 http://www.lilsugar.com/2417029 <a href="http://www.lilsugar.com/2417029"><img width=160 height=107 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/upl1/10/107379/43_2008/1944d3e66c2c6103_apgar.large.jpg'></div></a><p><span class="inline left"></span>Moms chat about their newborn's APGAR scores, but do they know how the numbers add up?
