Published by Jenni Sidey

So, you’ve had a baby. Everyone keeps asking how the baby’s sleeping, how the baby’s eating, how the baby’s everything. But how are you? That part tends to get skipped. Between feeding schedules and diaper blowouts, it’s easy to forget you’re not just a walking burp cloth and milk machine. You’re still a whole human who deserves rest, joy, connection, and a little time to breathe. Whether you’re a few weeks postpartum, well into the first year, or even 18 years postpartum, these 10 ideas will help you reconnect with yourself (no guilt required). 1. Make time for self-care, even if it’s just 15 minutes Self-care doesn’t have to mean spa days and scented candles (but never say no to that if you have the chance). It also isn’t doing an everything shower or going to the grocery store alone, though there are studies on being present and finding peace during hectic times.

Rare pregnancy complication has put UK women into ‘emergency surgery’ | Pregnancy

Rare pregnancy complication has put UK women into ‘emergency surgery’ | Pregnancy

Published by Sam Flores

Women have had to undergo major emergency surgery, including a hysterectomy, when medical staff failed to detect they had a rare but potentially fatal complication of pregnancy. Scores of women have come forward to tell their stories of how they were affected by placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) since the launch in February of a campaign to raise awareness among NHS staff and mothers-to-be of the dangers it poses. One of them lost so much blood while giving birth that she has had to give up working as an NHS operating theatre nurse and suffers from PTSD. Another lost six litres of blood and blames her daughter’s cerebral palsy on the stroke the child had while hospital personnel were battling to save her life after an emergency caesarean section. Others have suffered permanent damage to their bladder or bowels. PAS is associated with a history of C-section birth while assisted fertility using in vitro fertilisation also increases the risk. It occurs when the placenta, which gives the foetus nutrients and oxygen, grows too deeply into the …

High nighttime temperatures during pregnancy linked to increased autism risk in children

High nighttime temperatures during pregnancy linked to increased autism risk in children

Published by José Betancourt

An analysis of data from the Kaiser Permanente Southern California hospitals collected between 2001 and 2014 found that children whose gestational weeks 1-10 and 30-37 coincided with periods of very high nighttime temperatures had a 13-15% higher risk of being diagnosed with autism by age 5. The paper was published in Science of the Total Environment. Autism, or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person communicates, interacts socially, and experiences the world. It is called a spectrum because it can appear in many different forms and with very different levels of support needs. Common features include differences in social communication, restricted or repetitive patterns of behavior, and strong or unusual sensory sensitivities. Some autistic people speak fluently, while others speak little or not at all. Many autistic individuals have intense interests, strong attention to detail, or preferred routines that help them feel safe and organized. Causes of autism are not fully understood, but research shows that genetic influences play a major role. However, there is emerging evidence that certain …

Portman also said that this pregnancy differs from her previous due to the wisdom that comes with age. “There is a gratitude that when you’re young, you don’t necessarily grasp,” she said. At present, “there’s a calm and knowing myself: who I want to spend time with, what kind of energy I want around me that makes the experience so beautiful every day. And knowing it’s probably the last time, I cherish every moment.” “I read so many books the first time, and now I’m like, ‘Oh, we know what to do.’ It’s okay. You figure it out. We’re going to make lots of mistakes, no matter how hard we try,” she continued. :And also, we’re going to do a lot right without having to do research. I feel like if you’re just present and loving, that’s the best thing possible.” (Destable, who is 45, is also a veteran when it comes to parenting: He is father to two sons with French actress Louise Bourgoin: Étienne, born in April 2016, and Vadim, born in 2020.) …
