Y’all. If you are a l&d nurse quit scaring the public!!😭. While AFE is real it’s more rare than getting struck by lightening. So no reason to look it up ….. move right in along.

But some of you strong l&d nurses called it! Undiagnosed placental adherent disorders aka placenta accretta and the like.

There are some things, unlike AFE , that you can do to reduce your risk or the risk for loved ones.

1. Avoid a CS. Exercise 30 min/day. Avoid sugar. Gain appropriate weight as determined by your ob based on starting BMI. Treat gestational diabetes. Consider induction at 39 weeks to reduce a CS risk.

2. Make sure your OB does a double non locking suture - first layer is muscle (myometrium) second is serosa (outside of the uterus). This is very important.

3. Get a high quality sonogram. Especially if you have had a CS…. By someone trained to catch these sneaky placentas which can be very hard to see with accuracy.

For those of you who have had an accretta. ….. :)

What’s an obgyns true emergency? Might not be what you’re thinking.

And in some cases it’s preventable by following good medical advice and being followed by good medical providers. But mostly - it’s unpredictable.

“. Today’s class was so insightful and I cannot imagine how different my postpartum experience would have been with my first if I had heard the things I did today. I really appreciate how much you really prioritize mental health, especially as a new mom, and tell us all the ways that could really help us drive away those baby blues rather than only offering medication as the only solution. I also really liked that you brought up that it was important for us to prioritize our relationship with our partners and why it’s so important as well! Most of all, I really really appreciated how encouraging and respectful you were of all of the choices we made as mothers and reminding us that what we did and continue to do is so important and amazing! Had I have sat in this class as a first time mom I would have felt so much more confident in my motherhood and probably wouldn’t have struggled as much as I did. “

Gonna make a grown woman cry.
And all I really have to do is remind each of you is your own power and strength.

Let’s do ladies. Community is everything. And yall are rocking it !

We have learned a lot about weight loss in the last decade. The good. The bad. And the ugly. And we now know unsupervised rapid weight loss with medications can make you LESS healthy than being overweight!

-follow your body comp
- don’t lose too fast , don’t restrict calories too much
- get vitamins. Protein. Collegen. Maintain muscle with appropriate resistance training personalized for you
- minimize side effects by having physician oversight and professional supplement and meal planning for you.

Give it 6 months - you’ll be an expert in all things glp. But invest in yourself and your future. Not just the scale. :).

The Gasores are truly stepping into their power at Rwanda children’s. It’s not easy. And was no accident. But they are creating schools, maternity programs, sewing facilities, agriculture projects and more. They are working towards self sufficience - and plan on this organization to run forever. But for now, it’s yearly budget relies mostly on donors.

I could not be more proud to know them, know their fruits and serve them on their board.

If you are looking for an organization to support and want more information or to even meet with serge, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

Their maternal program is near and dear to me - and they are doing it right. I am really proud to see their level of high quality compassionate care.

These are my girls. When I was pregnant with them I had migraines, influenza, strep throat and kidney stones. I was an obgyn and took Tylenol. Here’s what I knew

- high fever can cause severe birth defects
- pain and stress and lack of sleep can cause poor pregnancy outcomes
- motion/advil/ibuprofen increases the risk for birth defects, miscarriage and low amniotic fluid which increases the risk for stillbirth.
- rx migraine medicine decreased placental perfusion and narcotics just aren’t too awesome in pregnancy. Babies can be born addicted.
- autism is on the rise. But it’s complex. It’s diagnosed a bit more. But that’s not the whole story. Since it’s rise we have polluted air. Polluted food. Polluted water. Obesity due to those things. More stress. More medical conditions in pregnancy. Older pregnancies. More sedentary lifestyles. Poorer sleep. More autoimmune conditions. And more.
- there is a great sibling study which ruled out tylenol as a cause for autism in same families - thus accounting for genes, food, environment , etc in which the other studies could not exclude.

Here’s what I know and preach. Eat well. Sleep well. Exercise. Avoid pollutants. And take as little medicine in pregnancy as you need to be healthy. But. Like always. Remember. Moms are people too.
