With a child, that statutory period can be extended to the eighth birthday of the child because babies can’t tell us when something is wrong and sometimes the physicians don’t discover it within that two-year time period. It’s important to – you know your baby better than anybody – to talk to your physicians to find out if it was a difficult labor delivery and you feel like your baby isn’t developing normally – talk to your pediatrician about that.
