After my daughter was born, my parents showed me the booklet containing the results of the routine examinations I had as a child (where I come from, this booklet has been standardized for decades, so it can be compared pretty easily). Interestingly, we both had the exact same Apgar scores 6 / 10 / 10 (scores are measured 1, 5 and 10 minutes after birth). For the emotional "is my baby ok" aspect, before you are even interested in the Apgar scores, you automatically and instinctively do a quick "is everything there" check, even if you know that to be the case because of the ultrasound examinations.
