OP: popthatmumma These accounts will make a controversy out of anything. Their goal is to find any reason to make people think we have ulterior motives and intentionally taking your choices away. Its a hat. Take it or leave it—but actually take it home cause they are cute momentoes. I still have my twins hats ❤️ For those asking, this is what AAP says about newborn hats: Given the questionable benefit of hat use for the prevention of hypothermia and the risk of overheating, it is advised not to place hats on infants when indoors except in the first hours of life or in the NICU. Go to my “newborn” highlight to access the AAP Recommendations for Reducing Infant Deaths in the Sleep Environment. There is a great table. #newborn #postpartum #newbornhat #birth #childbirth #laboranddelivery

Pregnancy loss, also referred to as miscarriage or spontaneous abortion, is generally defined as a nonviable intrauterine pregnancy up to 20 weeks of gestation. Early pregnancy loss, which occurs in the first trimester (ie, up to 12+6 weeks gestation), is the most common type. ●First trimester – First-trimester losses are those up to 12+6 weeks gestation. ●Second trimester – Early second-trimester pregnancy loss is one that occurs after 13+0 and prior to 20+0 weeks of gestation [9]. Signs and symptoms of second-trimester pregnancy loss include bleeding, cramping/pain, or labor. Diagnosis of second-trimester pregnancy loss includes ultrasound documentation of intrauterine fetal death or spontaneous delivery. The definition of recurrent pregnancy loss varies. As examples, varying definitions have included: ●Two or more failed clinical pregnancies as documented by ultrasonography or histopathologic examination. ●Three consecutive pregnancy losses, which are not required to be intrauterine. Workup for RPL includes: •parental karotype •uterine assessment •Antiphospholipid syndrome •thyroid function tests Individuals with pregnancy loss, particularly early pregnancy loss (EPL), are likely to have subsequent normal pregnancies. Earlier initiation of conception efforts after a pregnancy loss does not increase the risk of another pregnancy loss and may positively impact live birth rates. It is important for patients to be emotionally ready for pregnancy when they start trying to conceive. #pregnancyloss #miscarriage #pregnancylossawareness #iufd #fetaldemise

Replying to @Dona S. ACOG makes the following recommendations on cesarean delivery on maternal request: If a patient's main motivation to elect a cesarean delivery is a fear of pain in childbirth, obstetrician–gynecologists and other obstetric care providers should discuss and offer the patient analgesia for labor, as well as prenatal childbirth education and emotional support in labor. In the absence of maternal or fetal indications for cesarean delivery, a plan for vaginal delivery is safe and appropriate and should be recommended. After exploring the reasons behind the patient’s request and discussing the risks and benefits, if a patient decides to pursue cesarean delivery on maternal request, the following is recommended: In the absence of other indications for early delivery, cesarean delivery on maternal request should not be performed before a gestational age of 39 weeks. Given the high repeat cesarean delivery rate, patients should be informed that the risks of placenta previa, placenta accreta spectrum, and gravid hysterectomy increase with each subsequent cesarean delivery. #cesareansection #cesarean #cesareandelivery #cesareanbirth #electivecesareanbirth #cesareanonmaternalrequest #ercd #electiverepeatcesareandelivery
