MaximsNewsNetwork: 05 March 2010 – The World Bank: India – In Indias Tamil Nadu state, infant mortality has been dropping for years. One of the reasons might be an aspect of health care reform that focuses on training mothers in staying healthy throughout their pregnancy. Hundreds of pregnant women come every week for checkups and treatment. Prenatal care, free of charge and close to their homes has become a corner stone of Indias campaign to bring down maternal and infant mortality rates. And many first-time mothers get more than medical support. SOUNDBITE (Tamil) Sunati, Pregnant Woman: I come every two weeks for a checkup and they give me the medication and supplements I need. They also asked me to eat a lot of greens, iron-rich foods and eggs. Poverty, malnutrition and lack of knowledge about healthy behavior lay at the heart of many pregnancy-related complications. Sometimes women cannot afford to eat properly or to make long trips to the clinics where they could get prenatal care. As a result, problems can go undetected and babies are born too early and sick. Like Dirvya, who was only 1.8 kilos at birth because her mother ate too little while working too hard. SOUNDBITE (Tamil) Mghala, Mother: I did not take the supplements that are recommended. But now that I see what happened to my baby, I know what I need to do next time.” Dirvya was lucky. She was referred to the districts neonatal unit where specialists will help her to get strong and healthy. SOUNDBITE …

This is the birth of my son Slater from October 2009. That’s not my real body. My you-can-tell-I-go-to-the-gym body is slowly being returned to me. This birth was a successful midwife-assisted VBAC – no pain killers. I had no clue what I was having, but I thought I for sure I was having a girl, though, based on the differences between this pregnancy and my first pregnancy with my other son. (Had he been a she, his name would have been “Adina” – like “Idina,” my favorite singer, but with an “A.”)

I answer questions I’ve been asked about being/getting pregnant and having gastric bypass surgery and having PCOS **Sorry, the sound is out of sync** 1) How soon after surgery can I get pregnant? 2) Was your pregnancy effected by your gastric bypass? 3) Did you take the glucose test? 4) Was your delivery effected by the surgery? 5) Special Diet? *I forgot to mention that I did start eating carbs when I got pregnant. 1- because I was now on a maintenance phase in terms of weight loss and 2- because a developing baby NEEDS complex carbs. So I incorporated whole wheat carbs. 6) How much weight did you gain? 7) Did you have trouble losing weight after you gave birth? Did you have any trouble breast feeding? 9) Has my PCOS improved since the surgery? *I wasn’t clear, I do believe my PCOS has really improved. I have normal cycles/flow now. 10) When did you start to show? If you have any other questions, please let me know. There are other post-op ladies who have had successful pregnancies after having gastric bypass, if they watch this video and want to chime in, I welcome it. ) I don’t want to put their business out there tho so I won’t mention them by name unless they say it’s ok.
hotandhealthyliving.com This workout was designed by Marissa Lysaght, MPH, CSCS. Marissa is a nationally certified personal training specialist and holds a Master’s Degree in Maternal and Child Health. She specializes in fat loss and pre and post-natal training. She is the co-owner/operator of Fitness Redefined, a boutique fitness studio in Jupiter, FL. www.fitnessredefined.com Staying physically fit is a challenge for everyone, but it can be especially challenging for new moms. This total-body conditioning and core training workout can be done at home (while baby naps!) This workout helps moms-to-be and new moms multi-task by targeting core muscles in their abdominal region in addition to the large metabolically active muscles of the legs, hips, chest, back and arms (strengthening the large muscles will help you burn more calories, even during rest.) While its best to start a fitness program (including these exercises) BEFORE you even get pregnant, the workout program is good for both prenatal and postnatal women. These exercises are recommended for women with no known contraindications, and should be followed according to your own body cues. If you are pregnant, you can begin the exercises slowly. Again, let your body be your guide; never over-exert yourself and avoid doing any movements that cause pain. If youve recently delivered, consult your physician before beginning these exercises (or any exercises for that matter). However, once you get the Green Light to …
How the hell can they categorically say that the H1N1 is safe for pregnant women and the baby they are carrying. THE TESTS ONLY STARTED IN SEPTEMBER 2009 AND THE END RESULTS WILL BE OUT IN JULY 2010. So they have got NO idea what it is doing to the fetus or maybe they have and that is the idea. I am absolutely disgusted with our governments and the propaganda they have been using to scare the population into getting a fast tracked H1N1 swine flu vaccine. AND now that the USA is under a National Emergency that allows hospitals and doctors to use drugs and treatments which have NOT been approved by the FDA and have NOT gone through all the necessary tests to find out whether they are safe for public use. For example SQUALENE AND another point I would like to make- It would not be until a baby is old enough to show developmental delay for them to know that the H1N1 vaccine has had any effect on the fetus ! Normally when a baby is 9-12 months old. COME ON PEOPLE. Here is the CLINICALTRIALS.GOV H1N1 Vaccine trials in Pregnant Women link- www.clinicaltrials.gov You will clearly see: This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants. Estimated Enrollment:120 Study Start Date:September 2009 *** Estimated Study Completion Date:July 2010 *** Estimated Primary Completion Date:July 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) Thankyou to KRQE’s channel www.youtube.com for this impartial interview.
