Apgar testing is the first and quick assessment of the overall health and well-being of a newborn baby. The Apgar testing system was first implemented in the 1950's by an obstetric anesthesiologist, Virginia Apgar. Apgar testing is now commonly used to assess newborn babies in their first few minutes after birth.

Natural Family Planning is considered a highly effective method of birth control that involves an active approach at knowing the woman's most fertile times by dissecting fertile signals regarding fertility and ovulation. Natural Family Planning is often associated with the charting method of birth control, which doesn't carry the best reputation for effectiveness.
