A lot of things are in fact, more effective at preventing pregnancy complications than baby aspirin. 🥰

According to a 2022 meta-analysis published in BJOG, the estimated impact of calcium (a 52% decrease in relative risk for women with low baseline calcium intake) is much greater than that of aspirin (a 17% decrease in relative risk for any pre-eclampsia in women at increased pre-eclampsia risk based on clinical factors, or a 62% decrease in preterm pre-eclampsia for women at high risk identified through multivariable first-trimester screening).

And it is estimated the 50% of women are not meeting the RDA for calcium.

Just a reminder that it’s NEVER too late to say, “Screw this circus and clowns, I’m birthing at home the way I desire!” 👌🏼💕
