My doctor saved my son's life with an emergency c-section in this same hospital.
For for this woman, they just left her -- just waited for her to almost die for 5 days, even though there was no way this baby was going to survive, before sending her out of state. This is horrific.
This story involves an Iowa tshirt company, a basketball star, a Boston Globe reporter, online trolls who piss on walls, a lot of toxic masculinity and a lot of insight into the state of men. www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...
A wild day in the GOP race for Iowa governor.
Public poll showed Feenstra sinking, Lahn rising (consistent with private polling).
Establishment hit the panic button, got Trump to endorse Randy Feenstra, finally.
Minutes later Zach Lahn announced he has Turning Point USA's support.
Importantly, study also found no increased risk of c-section.
Well, look at that. Planned "early" birth can be good for both mom and baby.
Love this quote -- "A common misconception is that by waiting longer, mum and baby are gaining more time, but often what you are doing is just delaying an inevitable emergency birth, when both may be in a worse condition"
@autonomynews.co is almost one year old. I’m so proud of us @susanrinkunas.com
I'm under-babied. My son Caleb was stillborn at term in 2017.
I'm far from the only one. Over 20K babies stillborn every year in the U.S. including 3500ish at term.
Other countries prioritize stillbirth prevention. The U.S. doesn't.
did you know i am doing a dissertation on workplace leave use among full-time workers in the US who have experienced miscarriage?
well now you do! and if you think you may be eligible, you can take a screener survey at go.uic.edu/leavestudy or scan the QR code.

The "Beautify this slide" AI thing on google slides is highly offensive. My slides are already beautiful.
