You may have seen her on Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook sharing evidence-based insights on pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She often ends reels with “For more information on pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum, give me a follow and check out my page”. So, we did—and invited her to share her wisdom with you in this special podcast episode. As a nurse and mom of three who chose unmedicated births, Sarah brings a unique perspective to the low-intervention birth experience. In this podcast, we talk to her about her choices and tips for others if they plan to have low- intervention births. But she's quick to remind us, she thinks the right choice for birthing families is the choice they make, and hopes we remember that birth is not a competition. Everyone should make their own choices.

Gestational diabetes changes the direction of many women's pregnancies. Once the determination is made, things are not so straightforward after that. In this podcast we will explore how the path to birth changes once a diagnosis is made and what women can do to have a birth with as few complications as possible. We also look at what women can do to prevent the diagnosis in the first place. We discussed this important topic with Lily Nichols, who is a Registered Dietitian and Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator, researcher, and author with a passion for evidence-based prenatal nutrition guidance. Her work is known for being research-focused, thorough, and critical of outdated dietary guidelines. She is the co-founder of the Women's Health Nutrition Academy and the author of two books, Real Food for Pregnancy and Real Food for Gestational Diabetes. Lily's bestselling books have helped tens of thousands of mamas (and babies!). They are used in university-level maternal nutrition and midwifery courses and have even influenced prenatal nutrition policy internationally. Listen and Learn: How women can change things in their lives to avoid gestational diabetes What impact exercise has on blood sugar levels How much education most OBs/MFMs/FMOBs have in nutrition and gestational diabetes What tests are currently used to look for gestational diabetes and how accurate they are Why old standards of test outcomes are still in practice and what newer options are available that may be more predictive How the morning meal affects blood sugar levels Resources & Mentions: Lily Nichols' Website Related Products from InJoy: Understanding Pregnancy Curriculum Understanding Birth Curriculum Understanding Prenatal Nutrition
When a mother has the devastating experience of leaving the hospital without a baby and perhaps only a memory box, many in our society expect them to get on with living and go back to their normal life. But their life is changed forever, and many don't recognize or acknowledge that. Today we will hear the story of grief, anger, a battle, and finally, a life's purpose for one mother who had to walk this hard path. Through her mission, she struggled to get family leave extended to grieving parents, so no one would have to suffer as she did. She also discovered the importance of providing resources for self-care and connection to bereavement groups. Elizabeth “Liz” O'Donnell is a steadfast infant loss advocate leading the charge in raising awareness and prevention of stillbirth and infant mortality. Her daughter, Aaliyah, was born still in 2020. Today, she runs a one-woman non-profit, Aaliyah in Action, keeping her daughter's spirit alive, supporting mothers and families across the country who experience the pain of losing a baby, and advocating for legislation that could reduce the number of U.S. stillbirths. Liz is also a Director of Awareness for PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy, a grassroots initiative that advocates for evidence-based, respectful, and equitable maternity care aimed at preventing loss when possible. Before her advocacy work, Liz was a dedicated D.C. Public Schools elementary math and science schoolteacher for 7 years.

As the Year of the Dragon approaches, sales of products with dragon elements have witnessed explosive growth on major e-commerce platforms, which experts said indicates not only the strong resonance of traditional Chinese culture among consumers, but also the vitality of the nation's consumer market.龙年将至,各大电商平台龙元素产品销量爆发式增长,专家表示,这不仅体现了中国传统文化在消费者中的强烈共鸣,也体现了我国消费市场的活力。Dragon, or long in Chinese, a mythical and auspicious creature that is the fifth animal of the 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle, is considered to be a sacred symbol of good luck, strength and fortune in China. The purchasing frenzy ahead of the upcoming Spring Festival holiday is expected to further shore up consumer confidence and bolster the recovery of consumption, the experts added.龙,一种神秘的吉祥物,是中国十二生肖中的第五位,在中国文化中被认为是好运、力量和财富的神圣象征。专家补充说,春节假期前的抢购狂潮预计将进一步提振消费者信心,促进消费复苏。Data from e-commerce platform JD showed that searches for dragon-related merchandise via its online marketplace have surpassed 23 million since January, with dragon-themed Moutai, commemorative coins and apparel leading the trend.电商平台京东的数据显示,自1月份以来,网上市场上与龙相关的商品搜索量已超过2300万次,其中以龙为主题的茅台酒、纪念币和服饰引领潮流。Since the launch of JD's Spring Festival promotional campaign on Jan 17, the transaction volume of dragon-themed commodities in more than 800 subcategories has soared more than tenfold year-on-year, according to the company.据京东介绍,自1月17日春节促销活动启动以来,800多个小品类的龙主题商品交易额同比猛增十倍以上。It said products with dragon-themed elements, such as car ornaments, household accessories, clothing, daily necessities, alcohol, maternal and infant goods, and gold jewelry have been favored by consumers. Purchases by the post-1990s and post-2000s generations accounted for nearly 55 percent of the total, while consumers in Guangdong province, Beijing, Jiangsu province, Shanghai and Shandong province, in that order, were the top five spenders on dragon-featured items, according to JD.车饰、家居饰品、服装、日用品、酒类、母婴用品、黄金首饰等龙主题产品深受消费者青睐。90后、2000后消费群体占比近55%,龙类商品消费前五位依次为广东省、北京、江苏、上海、山东省。Jason Yu, general manager of Kantar Worldpanel China, a market research provider, said that because the dragon is an important symbol of Chinese traditional culture and is believed to bring good luck, Chinese consumers who buy dragon-themed goods are expressing their hopes for a better life in the new year.市场研究机构凯度消费者指数中国区总经理于杰表示,由于龙是中国传统文化的重要象征,被认为会带来好运,因此购买龙主题商品的中国消费者都表达了对龙的期待。新的一年生活更美好。Yu noted that China's Generation Z shoppers — those born between the mid-1990s and the early 2010s — are displaying a heightened sense of national pride and confidence in Chinese culture, and "their pursuit of the Year of the Dragon products has also injected fresh vitality into the inheritance of traditional culture".于杰表示,中国的Z世代购物者(即20世纪90年代中期至2010年代初出生的消费者)表现出高度的民族自豪感和对中国文化的自信,他们对龙年产品的追求也为传统文化传承注入了新鲜活力。Dragon-themed red envelopes, refrigerator magnets, mobile phone cases, underwear and socks have gained popularity among Chinese consumers, according to Taobao, the online marketplace of Chinese tech heavyweight Alibaba Group. Searches for dragon-related products skyrocketed 640-fold year-on-year between Dec 27 and Jan 2 on Taobao, according to the company.据中国科技重量级阿里巴巴集团的在线市场淘宝网称,以龙为主题的红包、冰箱贴、手机壳、内衣和袜子受到中国消费者的欢迎。据该公司称,12月27日至1月2日期间,淘宝上与龙相关的产品搜索量同比猛增640倍。Among the items, gold ornaments with dragon elements saw a 500-fold increase in search volume, while searches for "limited collections for the Year of the Dragon" soared more than thirtyfold compared with the same period last year. More than 30 museums, such as the Palace Museum in Beijing, the Gansu Provincial Museum and the British Museum, have launched over 1,000 limited editions of dragon-related products on Tmall, Alibaba's business-to-customer e-marketplace.其中,带有龙元素的金饰搜索量同比增长500倍,“龙年限量收藏”搜索量较去年同期飙升逾30倍。北京故宫博物院、甘肃省博物馆、大英博物馆等30余家博物馆在阿里巴巴B2C电子市场天猫推出了1000多件限量版龙相关产品。The rich cultural connotations and the good wishes that the dragon carries have not only stimulated people's passion for buying, but also satisfied their rising demand for personalized and creative products with unique cultural symbols, said Hong Yong, an associate research fellow at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation's e-commerce research institute.中国科学院国际贸易经济合作部电子商务研究所副研究员洪勇表示,龙丰富的文化内涵和美好祝愿不仅激发了人们的购买热情,也满足了人们对具有独特文化符号的个性化、创意产品日益增长的需求。"Spring Festival is the traditional festival that Chinese people attach the most importance to, and it's also a peak season for consumption," Hong said, emphasizing that brands should capitalize on traditional Chinese culture to launch more innovative products.The shopping craze for dragon-related products ahead of Lunar New Year is crucial for expanding domestic demand and promoting the recovery of the consumer market, he added.洪勇表示:“春节是中国人最重视的传统节日,也是消费旺季。品牌要结合中国传统文化,推出更多创新产品。春节前的相关产品对于扩大内需、促进消费市场复苏至关重要”。Lunar New Year春节a peak season for consumption消费旺季

Newborn babies get their first microbiome from their mother's vagina during birth. The baby will become covered with this beneficial bacterial as they come out of the protected environment of the womb, through the birth canal, and to the world beyond. When the baby is born vaginally, they will have a gut microbiome similar to that of their mother's vaginal and fecal flora. This helps set up lifelong gut health. But for babies not born vaginally, there are other ways to help insure good gut health. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion of why microbiome is important and how to help families advocate for procedures that will be beneficial for themselves and their baby. Toni Harman is a graduate of the London Film School and has produced and directed a number of internationally-distributed documentary films, including: MICROBIRTH (about the origins of the human microbiome), FREEDOM FOR BIRTH (about the struggle for women's rights in childbirth), and DOULA! (about the work of birth and postnatal doulas). Toni's extensive research for MICROBIRTH led to her co-authoring the books THE MICROBIRTH EFFECT and YOUR BABY's MICROBIOME. Toni is a professional speaker at international conferences about the science of the microbiome and epigenetics. She also leads the MICROBIOME COURSES online school. Toni combines knowledge gained from researching the subject for ten years with her extensive experience of running educational one-day and multiple-day workshops for adult learners. Listen and Learn: Why microbiome is so necessary for healthy humans, starting at birth How initial microbiome is transferred from mother to baby What happens with the microbiome if the baby is born by cesarean Processes other than birth that can help increase a newborn's microbiome How we can teach these important facts to pregnant and new families How mothers can increase the beneficial parts of their microbiome for their own health and their baby's Resources & Mentions: https://microbirth.com and https://microbirth.teachable.com Get in touch with Toni Harman: toniharman@hotmail.com Related Products from InJoy: Understanding Birth Curriculum

In 2016, when the NYS DOH put out a request for application to receive the Creating Breastfeeding Friendly Communities (CBFC) Grant, the Rockland County Lactation community united to support and work together for this initiative. At that time, 86.6% of new mothers in the state initiated breastfeeding, but only 56% were still breastfeeding at six months, and of those, only 17% were exclusively breastfeeding.

Listen in as we discuss promoting Vaginal Nulliparous Term Singleton Vertex (NTSV) birth to decrease the risk of maternal morbidity and mortality. Dr. Lagrew agrees with a past president of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Vincenzo Berghella, who said, “Physicians do need to balance risks and benefits, and for some clinical conditions, cesarean is definitely the best mode of delivery. But for most (NTSV) pregnancies that are low risk, a cesarean delivery may pose greater risk than vaginal delivery, especially risks related to future pregnancies.” Working to decrease the number of cesareans that are not strictly for clinical conditions is something we can all work on. Educators, nurses, community health workers, and others can use the information Dr. Lagrew shares to help people avoid the first cesarean. This will not only lower unintended outcomes of the initial cesarean like hemorrhage and infection but also prevent problems in subsequent pregnancies. Dr. Lagrew is a maternal-fetal medicine specialist and physician informaticist with a particular interest in maternal quality improvement. He recently retired as Medical Director of Women's and Children's services for Providence St. Joseph-Southern California and as a Providence System Provider Informaticist in Obstetrics. He has started his new role as Chief of Service, Maternal Fetal Medicine at Hoag Healthcare. He holds triple board certification in Obstetrics/Gynecology, Maternal Fetal Medicine, and Clinical Informatics. In addition to these administrative and leadership roles, he continues to actively author numerous peer-reviewed publications and book chapters. He is a clinical professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at UC Irvine. He is the immediate past chair of the Society of Maternal-Fetal Medicine's Clinical Informatics Committee. Listen and Learn: That the absolute lowest risk delivery is a vaginal delivery after a previous vaginal delivery The rate of cesarean birth compared to vaginal births in the US now How an NTSV protects the woman's long-term health, especially if she plans to have more children How midwives may have a lower cesarean rate due to their practice of admitting to the hospital later during labor How the shared decisions help prevent primary cesarean births How having a wide range of cesarean rates, state by state, is actually a good thing A sneak preview of the US's ARRIVE Study compared to an upcoming study out of Canada That robust childbirth education about risks and benefits including an explanation of complications and outcomes will benefit parents and will likely decrease the cesarean rate Resources & Mentions: Nation's Ob-Gyns Take Aim at Preventing Cesareans Safe Prevention of the Primary Cesarean Delivery Childbirth Connection info on cesarean resources California Maternal Quality Care Collaborative (many states have similar organizations) Email Dr. David Lagrew: David.Lagrew@hoag.org Related Products from InJoy: Understanding Pregnancy Understanding Birth The Stages of Labor
Pregnancy and birth are often portrayed with a single brush as if all these experiences are basically the same for every birthing person. But for Lauren and her family, that was far from the truth. The anticipation of the ideal birth ended abruptly and unexpectedly when her husband arrived home early with flowers one day, finding her looking unwell. He talked Lauren into going to the doctor for a “just in case” checkup, which turned into a totally unexpected outcome for Lauren. We will explore Lauren's story to understand how preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome impacted not just her birth but continue to impact Lauren's life to this day. In sharing her story, we will discover the tenacity of all those involved in her experience, including Lauren. During the conversation, we will discuss what, if any, warning signs were there that she didn't recognize at the time. She will give us ideas for ways to speak to our students and patients about this still largely mysterious malady that affects 5 to 8% of pregnant people (and of these, 15% of these develop HELLP syndrome). Overcoming preeclampsia/HELLP syndrome takes not just a team but an entire village—and that is just what happened in Lauren's journey. Lauren Ward Larsen is a storyteller, writer, speaker, advocate, and former corporate and nonprofit executive. As a professional speaker, Lauren has delivered hundreds of keynote addresses at corporate meetings, conferences, nonprofit events, and fundraisers in the U.S and Europe. Based on her birth experience with Clare, she has added another type of storytelling to her repertoire. Educating pregnant families and medical care providers about her experience with preeclampsia has become a key component of her life. Listen and Learn: How the lack of information caused big trouble for Lauren: “I didn't know what I didn't know The signs to look out for regarding preeclampsia, including upper right abdominal pain How things changed for Lauren so quickly 3 days after a “normal” appointment How her husband's unusual mid-day personal flower delivery likely saved her life While pre-existing health conditions like high blood pressure can be a predictor, others can be affected, including Lauren, who is an active athlete How important it is for everyone in the hospital and medical community to understand the signs of preeclampsia, including the Emergency Department The importance of listening to your intuition and not taking possible symptoms lightly Zuzu's Petals is not a book for pregnant people Resources & Mentions: Eclampsia Foundation Hear Her Zuzu's Petals: A True Story of Second Chances by Lauren Ward Larsen (on Amazon or other book sellers) Lauren's website: https://laurenwardlarsen.com Related Products from InJoy: Discussion and Warning signs in: Understanding Birth Understanding Postpartum Health & Baby Care
The words bonding and attachment are common words, but what is the deeper meaning behind those words for new parents and their newborns or yet-to-be born babies? How can parents connect with their newborn in utero? How will the attachment before and after the baby is born affect the epigenomes, brain development, and future health of their little one? Laurel will take us on a fascinating dive into this topic to help us translate this information to our patients, students, and clients so that more new parents will understand the benefits of attachment to their new babies. Laurel Wilson, IBCLC, RLC, BSc, CLE, CCCE, CLD is a TEDx and international speaker, pregnancy and lactation specialist, consultant, educator, and author. Laurel is the co-author of two books, The Attachment Pregnancy and The Greatest Pregnancy Ever; original editor of The CAPPA Lactation Educator Manual; as well as a contributing author to Round the Circle: Doulas Talk About Themselves. Her passion is blending today's recent scientific findings with mind/body/spirit wisdom to highlight the magnitude and importance of the perinatal period. Spending 17 years as Executive Director for Lactation Programs for the Childbirth and Postpartum Professionals Association formed the foundation of her inquiry into the science of human milk. She has acted and still acts in many capacities locally and nationally promoting the belief that the journey into parenthood is a life-changing rite of passage that should be deeply honored and celebrated. Listen and Learn: The physiological and emotional process of bonding and attachment that occurs during birth & beyond What is epigenetics, epigenome, and microbiome and how are they connected? How epigenetics work in a human is based on the external reality of that person's experiences How the first 1,000 days of a baby's life and their external reality impacts their organ systems How most diseases are not DNA related but rather influenced by epigenetic impact What impact chronic stress, including weathering, has on future health How to teach parents to move away from stress when possible What full engagement means during pregnancy Resources & Mentions: https://motherjourney.com/index.html (Laurel's website with many more resources) Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health Kindred – One Family, One World Related Products from InJoy: Understanding Pregnancy Understanding Breastfeeding Understanding Your Newborn Understanding Fatherhood
This episode was recorded on 5/23/22 The students and patients that you interact with have far different expectations for learning than a K-12 student. They are with you for a very specific reason and expect you to give them relevant information they can use right away that they can incorporate with what they already know. Adult learners require educators to use some unique approaches that tap into both the art and science of teaching. This episode will give you some specific tips on how to incorporate Adult Learning Principles in your classroom or virtual classes. Our expert is Kristen Gosse, MEd, the Learning Strategist and Content Development Manager for InJoy Health Education. She has a background in professional writing and almost 14 years of experience designing content for pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and parenting health education materials. Kristen explores ways to apply adult learning theory and the psychology of motivation to health education. If adults do not understand or feel empowered, they are at a disadvantage to make informed decisions in almost every facet of life. Her goal is to nurture this feeling of empowerment through thoughtful, engaging content and effective learning experiences. Listen and Learn: Adult learners need to be in charge of their own learning Your students want to be treated with respect Many prefer social interaction in the classroom or online Students learn through doing, practice, and return demonstration The “Fab 4” basic principles of well-known researcher in Adult Learning, Malcolm Knowles There is no such thing as a learning style for an individual---everyone needs to see information in multiple ways to retain it How reflection is helpful in processing information, so asking the learner to jot down ideas is useful Why these principles apply to the classroom and the bedside Resources & Mentions: Engaged: Designing for Behavior Change by Amy Bucher Designing for How People Learn by Julie Dirksen Julie Dirksen's website: https://usablelearning.com/ https://elearningindustry.com/the-adult-learning-theory-andragogy-of-malcolm-knowles Healthy Content Matters: Bringing Patient Education Online Related Products from InJoy: Online Education Books + Web Apps PowerPoints Video Programs

In the area of high-risk pregnancies, preeclampsia poses special challenges. Kimmara Jackson, a highly experienced OB nurse and legal nurse consultant, provides a detailed analysis of how this condition is treated. Pregnant women with preeclampsia have the risk of high blood pressure, decreased kidney function, and seizures. Typically, they are confined to their hospital beds and monitored very closely for a range of symptoms, including decreased urine output, lethargy, and reflex function. One of the challenges with such patients is that they may become increasingly restless and may get out of bed. Some check themselves out of the hospital because they find confinement unbearable. Others may have other children at home who are receiving inadequate care. Preeclampsia also challenges new nursing graduates. They lack the experience to recognize symptoms of lethargy, and they may do inadequate reflex testing. Their feelings of being overwhelmed are deepened by the effect that the Covid epidemic has had in shrinking the resources of all medical personnel. https://youtu.be/dfteTBh2mWo Join me in this episode of Legal Nurse Podcast to learn about Preeclampsia - High Risk Clinical and Legal Complication What are some of the challenges of treating a woman with preeclampsia? How does preeclampsia affect kidney function? What symptoms of distress are difficult for new nurses to discern? How has the Covid epidemic made learning on the job particularly difficult for new nurses? How can experienced nurses communicate standards of care to newer ones?
