What would be the reactions of Ford, Stan, Dipper, Mabel, Wendy, and Soos if Courtney announces she’s pregnant?

So one by one:

Ford's reaction: At first he wouldn't believe it, then he would be a little shocked and finally he would be happy 🥰 Stanley's reaction: He would laugh that his brother finally passed the assignment 😂 Dipper's reaction: He'd be shocked that his great-uncle was going to be a dad, but then he and Mabel would be happy. 😁 Mabel's reaction: The first time she hears about it, she'll start crocheting baby clothes 🧶 Wendy's reaction: She would immediately announce the news to her friends on social media 📱 Soos's reaction: He would be happy and offer himself as a professional midwife (yes, he will get certified online XD) who will train Courtney and Ford through all stages of pregnancy 😂

So, I saw this story circulating online and I wanted to center it because it's important.

A woman who was denied an abortion in the abortion-prohibitive state of Texas died in 2022, and her story is just now beginning to circulate in the media.

(Link to Article)

This woman's name was Yeniifer Alvarez-Estrada Glick, and she was an undocumented, uninsured woman who passed away from pregnancy complications after Texas passed S.B. 8, which banned abortion after six weeks of pregnancy.

Note for Context: This law was passed before Roe v Wade was overturned.

Texas was already woefully underprepared to serve pregnant women in their state because they were a maternal healthcare desert, meaning there was not a single OB-GYN or certified midwife available.

Yeniifer also had a history of illnesses such as diabetes and high blood pressure and she developed a condition called pulmonary edema after she got sick during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is when the lungs fill with fluid and put a strain on the heart and can be fatal to the patient. So, when Yeniifer became pregnant, she was considered high-risk.

In January of 2022, Yeniifer raced to the E.R. after she started experiencing - in her words to her husband Andrew over text, "Slight breathing problems." While her blood pressure was extremely high, the fetus growing within her appeared to be growing normally.

Doctors did not even bring up the possibility of terminating a pregnancy with her because the hospital that Yeniifer went to was a part of Ascension Seton, a network of Catholic hospitals.

As the costs of her hospital stay continued to compound and Yeniifer was losing time at work because she had to be admitted to the hospital for her hypertension, which prompted her to file for government-funded healthcare - though she received no response after she applied.

Yeniifer continued to see her doctor as her pregnancy progressed, doing her best to take her perscribed medications. She missed one appointment with her maternal-fetal specialist because the house where her client lived had bad cell service (for context, Yeniffer worked as a personal care aid for disabled patients).

As Yeniifer's pregnancy progressed further, she visited the hospital again on May 9th due to shortness of breath. Her blood pressure was 205/129 and she was 22 weeks and six days pregnant. This is when doctors determined that her pulmonary edema returned.

Due to bad weather, a helicopter could not take Yeniifer to a larger hospital where high-risk pregnancy cases could be better treated, so she was sent to Ascension Seton Medical Center Austin, which was 29 miles further away than the hospital she was originally intended to go to.

By the time Yeniifer was transported to the Austin hospital, she was "high risk for clinical decomposition/death" but her fetus was almost viable. In the following days, under the care of Celeste Sheppard, a maternal-fetal medicine specialist, Yeniifer's condition improved and her pulmonary edema calmed down. Four days after admission, she was disacharged with hypertension medication and a diuretic.

However, Yeniifer's condition at home was not great, as she was losing color in her skin and it was physically tiring for her to do daily tasks like go to work - with her tiredness becoming a chronic condition all the way into late May. Because the costs to see the medical professional she needed continued to climb, she did not see the OB-GYN again -- but her breathing problems persisted.

At 5 A.M. on July 10th, Yeniifer's breathing problems persisted so badly that emergency services had to be called and by this time, Yeniifer's BP was 213/146 - which is alarmingly high. Because acute pulmonary edema can cause patients to panic - which Yeniifer was, she was given sedation meds that were suggested by Dr. Willis, the Luling E.R. doctor who the paradmic called while she was in the ambulance.

By the time the paramedics made it to the E.R., Yeniifer had no pulse and she was pronounced dead (along with her fetus, who she named Selene) after paramedics unsuccessfully tried to administer CPR.

When Stephanie Taladrid, the author who wrote this article reached out to Yeniifer's husband, Andrew, for comment, he did not respond.

However, he did email her Yeniifer's autopsy report, which reads:

So yeah, this is what happens when abortion bans are in place and fetuses take precedence over the person who is pregnant. Yeniifer should not have died over this and it is incredibly sad that she did.

I encourage everyone to read this article, because it shares far more details regarding Yeniifer's story.

Staff Spotlight

Katy Wehrmann - Certified Nurse Midwife

(she/her/hers)

At PCC, we're proud to highlight the incredible achievements of our team members who continually strive to enhance the care we provide. This week, we're shining a spotlight on Katy Wehrmann, who recently earned her Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) certification in Menopause Care. Her dedication to improving midlife care is a testament to her commitment to serving our patients with the highest level of expertise.

Q: What inspired you to pursue the MSCP certification in Menopause Care?

A: Katy recognized a significant gap in her training when it came to addressing female midlife changes compared to reproductive and prenatal care. She saw an increasing number of patients experiencing issues related to perimenopause and menopause and felt underprepared to help. When she discovered the MSCP certification, she knew it was the perfect opportunity to gain the knowledge she needed. Notably, there are only about 25 certified providers in the Chicagoland area, with none serving Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). Katy was driven to bring this specialized care to PCC's patients.

Q: How do you see this certification benefiting your patients and colleagues at PCC?

A: Katy believes her certification allows her to provide comprehensive care during a life stage that is often misunderstood and underrecognized. She offers patients the time and space to discuss their symptoms and explore both hormonal and nonhormonal management options. Her familiarity with Medicaid coverage and low-cost options ensures accessible care for all patients. Additionally, Katy is a resource for her colleagues, welcoming referrals to provide specialized menopause care while patients continue to receive primary care from their usual providers.

Q: Can you share any key takeaways from your certification process?

A: The national certification process, which is available to Nurse Practitioners (NPs), Doctors of Osteopathy (DOs), and Medical Doctors (MDs), was an eye-opening experience for Katy. She was surprised by how much she had not learned in midwifery school and how much the field has evolved over the past 11 years.

Q: What advice would you give to others considering this certification or similar advanced training?

A: For Katy, gaining this certification has been both personally and professionally energizing. She has always loved guiding people through the life-changing experience of becoming a parent, and now she finds equal fulfillment in supporting patients through the transition of midlife. The demand for menopause care is growing, and Katy is eager to see more providers join this field. She encourages anyone interested in midlife care, especially in the telehealth space, to reach out to her for a conversation.

Katy's achievement not only broadens the scope of care at PCC but also underscores our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our community. We are incredibly proud to have her as part of our team and look forward to the positive impact her expertise will have on our patients and colleagues.

Relaxing and Safe: How Pregnancy Massage Can Help the Mother-to-Be

Expectant mothers can benefit from a special sort of massage called prenatal massage. Pregnancy massage is another term for it. Because it alleviates common pregnancy symptoms including headaches, swelling legs and feet, and back pain, this type of massage may be quite beneficial for pregnant women. Both the mother and the unborn child can benefit from pre-nat prenatale, which is a great method to relax and reduce stress.

What Is Pregnancy Massage Therapy? Dubai physiotherapy and rehabilitation centre offers a unique kind of massage called pre-nat prenatale that is tailored to the needs of pregnant moms. Back pain and oedema are two of the common pregnancy symptoms that it may alleviate. It's possible that pre-nat prenatale can help promote calm and improve overall health. If your massage therapist has any concerns or areas they would want to focus on during your prenatal session, be sure to let them know. The pregnant woman usually lies on her side with her breasts and belly propped up on cushions during a pre-nat prenatale. Light, rhythmic strokes will be used by the medical professional to massage the pregnant woman's connective tissues and muscles. As long as the therapist is aware of any medical issues that would make this form of massage therapy unsafe for pregnant women, getting pregnant is usually a safe bet.

Are There Any Benefits to Using Pre-nat Prenatale? A pre-natprenatale massage is one that has been specifically developed for pregnant moms. In addition to alleviating pain in the hips, neck, and lower back, it also improves the quality of sleep and reduces stress and anxiety. A massage may help alleviate stress and increase blood flow. The safety of a pre-nat prenatale during pregnancy should be discussed with your doctor before the procedure is scheduled. 1- Reduces stress and nervousness 2- Aids in the digestive process 3- Mitigates headache pain 4- Reduces aches and pains in muscles and joints and promotes restful sleep by increasing blood flow. 5- Could possibly lower blood pressure

What Can I Expect From a Prenatal Massage? Wellness centres Dubai often recommend a pre-nat prenatale to their pregnant clients as a way to relax and alleviate some of the discomforts of the pregnancy. Choosing a therapist who is pre-nat prenatal certified and has expertise working with expectant clients is of utmost importance. During the massage, you will either lie flat on your back or slightly reclined. The therapist's cushions will provide support and comfort for your body.

The massage will mostly focus on your lower body, including your legs, feet, neck, and shoulders. You should feel completely at peace and calm during the massage—maybe even drowsy. You will feel better and have less discomfort after the massage.

How Long Is the Recommended Duration of a Pre-nat Prenatale? One possible method to relax and alleviate tension while pregnant is to get a pre-nat prenatale. Back pain and oedema are two of the many typical pregnancy-related discomforts that it can help alleviate. However, how often should one plan for a pre-nat prenatalel? Since your needs and tastes may differ, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this topic. If you have a great deal of stress or pain, it may be helpful to get massages more frequently. In that case, once or twice a month could be more than enough. Inquire about the suitability of pre-nat prenatal for your needs and get advice on the recommended frequency of visits from your doctor or midwife.

When And Where Should The Massage Therapist Use Pressure? Pregnancy has the potential to be very beneficial for the mother and the baby. Relaxation, improved circulation, and less muscle tension and pain are all possible outcomes of a pregnancy massage Dubai. Nonetheless, where exactly is the masseuse going to exert pressure? Several things are considered by the therapist while determining the best location for a massage. They will initially want to know if the woman is experiencing any kind of pain or discomfort. To identify potential points of strain, they will also look at the mother's and baby's position. In the end, they'll use their discretion and expertise to determine which areas will get the greatest benefits from massage.

For The Massage, What Kinds Of Oils Will Be Used? Some of the benefits of pre-nat prenatale may be more pronounced with certain oils than with others. To alleviate swelling and improve blood flow, try using a light oil, such as grapefruit seed oil. This might be especially useful for pregnant ladies experiencing edema in their lower extremities during the third trimester. Olive oil, which is heavier than other oils, can help moisturise the skin and ease muscle tension. While this can be helpful at any point in a pregnancy, it may be especially helpful for women experiencing back discomfort in the first and second trimesters. Reducing muscle cramps and increasing relaxation during pregnancy are two additional benefits of using grapefruit seed oil in a prenatal massage. But as the baby bump grows in the last trimester, incorporating olive oil into your pregnancy massage can help nourish and hydrate the skin.

Gains of Being Treated By a Webster Certified Chiropractor in Carter Lake and Treynor, IA

An expectant mother needs special care. From the moment of conception to giving birth and months afterward, the new mom has to be looked after carefully. True, the gynecologist will advise the patient but reducing the stress along with several niggling issues that may or may not be natural is essential too. One of the best ways to put the mind and body at ease before giving birth is to opt for care by an experienced Webster certified chiropractor in Carter Lake and Treynor, IA. ​ Well, chiropractic care is quite a popular present. Most individuals believe it is more suitable for pain relief and weak joints. While this notion is true, it is essential to understand that a chiropractor addresses almost all problems in the human body. Pregnancy is not out of its forte either.

The patient and family would be well advised to discuss the matter in detail with the professional before resorting to chiropractic care. The following facts that come to light after such discussions are pleasing to the expectant/new mother and the entire family:-

Webster Technique Well, this is a chiropractic practice that involves adjustment and realignment of the sacrum and pelvic joint. The focus is on balancing the pelvic area's bones, muscles, and ligaments. The would-be mother's pelvic function is thus optimized and remains natural. This technique also helps to reduce the pain felt in the lower back, back of the thighs, and pubis. Almost all pelvic problems are addressed and solved during the extent of pregnancy.

Effect on Labor The intense discomfort and associated pain are addressed suitably by this technique. The chiropractic adjustment of the pelvic joint balances the pelvis and reduces the tension in the ligaments. Failing to do this may result in long and uncomfortable labor that becomes painful as well.

Effect on the Baby Since it is the mother who tries to expel the baby through the birth canal, the baby is likely to be affected, too. The concerned technique can be helpful here too. A perfectly adjusted and balanced pelvis will provide plenty of room for the baby, who remains comfortably snug inside the mother's body. Moreover, positioning the baby's head during the birth process will be natural, with the birth process being easy for both the mother and child.

Best time to consider the Webster technique While there is no specific time to visit a chiropractor, a pregnant woman will benefit when the expert examines her early and provides proper advice. A rule of thumb is to see the chiropractor as often as going to the gynecologist or midwife with complaints that require relief. The certified professional can help the patient as needed, even when the expectant mother chooses chiropractic care during the third trimester.

An experienced sports injury chiropractor in Council Bluffs and Carter Lake, IA, is needed to alleviate the pain and restore full functionality of the injured joints, muscles, and ligaments as required. This may be done in addition to conventional treatment.

What is the midwifery model of care?

The Midwives Model of Care™ is based on the fact that pregnancy and birth are normal life events. The Midwives Model of Care includes:

Monitoring the physical, psychological, and social well-being of the mother throughout the childbearing cycle

Providing the mother with individualized education, counseling, and prenatal care, continuous hands-on assistance during labor and delivery, and postpartum support

Minimizing technological interventions and

Identifying and referring women who require obstetrical attention.

The application of this model has been proven to reduce to incidence of birth injury, trauma, and cesarean section.From: MANA.org

Hello all! This is Midwife Kitty. I wanted to take a moment, and introduce myself. In my normal (non-Midwife) everyday life, I am a mom of two teens, a caretaker of several tens of plants, a caretaker to one cozy dog, one crazy dog, and a wife. I enjoy crocheting, thrifting, reading, roller-skating, and biking.

My journey into birth work, as many other midwives began with my own experiences. During my first pregnancy, I quite literally stumbled across Ina May Gaskin's book, "Guide to Childbirth and Labor" and it truly resonated with me. At that point, I was twenty-nine weeks pregnant with my first child and had already started care with an OB. I felt uncomfortable making a switch so late in my pregnancy. Little did I know, how smart it is to make those changes, even later in care. I had a run-of-the-mill hospital birth, nothing horrible, nothing spectacular. I had a vivid memory of the OB's cologne during that birth. My second child came quickly on the heels of my first, and I knew I wanted a different kind of care and birth. I loved the prenatal care that I received and I felt like it gave me a completely different set of tools and understanding about health care and my body. I felt like midwifery should be more accessible. I had a very fast and furious next birth. After that, I knew that midwifery was the right place for me. I waited until my kiddos were older and then began pursuing midwifery. I started out as a birth assistant, then I applied to the Florida Traditional School of Midwifery.

I have been a Licensed Midwife and Certified Professional Midwife for six years and a birth worker for ten years. I added Certified Lactation Professional to my resume two years ago. I have a passion for information and the shared decision-making model of care. I enjoy giving my clients the information and watching them use that information to make their own choices. I may have been called a second-hand Oxytocin junkie once or twice. After many years working for wonderful birth centers I am opting to slow down things and practice what I preach, mindful movement, presence, and healthful eating. My intention for opening my own practice is to have a fuller ability to connect and provide care. I can't wait to meet you and your family!

hey! im pregnant in canada, would love info on home births if that is okay? first pregnancy

I'm not well informed on the legal status of home birth midwives in Canada, nor on what if any parts of it are covered by your insurance. I imagine it varies from province to province as it does from state to state here in the US. Given that the main governing body of home birth midwives is called the North American Registry of Midwives, I assume they certify Certified Professional Midwives in Canada as well. CPMs are the ordinary home birth providers, but some Certified Nurse Midwives do births both in and out of hospital. In America, only CNMs accept insurance since CPMs are not considered medical professionals.

I have had all my births with CPMs, as is normal in the American home birth community. They are trained to manage low risk births and assess pregnancies for developing risks. The Midwifery Model of Care is based on informed consent, the mother being in control of her pregnancy and birth, and evidence based practice.

I'd recommend going to the North American Registry of Midwives website, I would think they have some ability to search for a midwife in your area. Since it is your first pregnancy, I'd recommend "shopping around" different types of providers to find the one that makes *you* feel the most comfortable and safe. That is essential for a good labour.

The general types/ facilities are:

-hospital with an OB

-hospital with a CNM

-free standing birth center with either CNM or CPM

-home birth with CNM or CPM.

In America, a home birth with a CPM costs between $3,000 and $5,000, in my experience. No idea what that converts to in Canadian dollars, or if the prices are approximately the same.

I hope that's helpful for getting started, please contact me again if you have more specific questions.

A birth certificate is an important document that details the circumstances of an individual’s birth. There are two types of birth certificate – short and long. A short certificate contains just the newborn’s details and the long document includes both the newborn and the parent’s details.

In most cases the birth certificate will include a name, place of birth, time of birth, sex at birth, mother and father and in many countries, verification of the event signed by the accompanying midwife or doctor. The purpose of a birth certificate is to prove that the birth has occurred and has been officially registered.

Why Do I Need Birth Certificate Translation?

Translation of a birth certificate will be necessary if you are planning to live or work abroad for a prolonged amount of time. The format and presentation of a birth certificate will differ from country to country. Consequently, birth certificate certified translation is essential for government authorities to process your application, in accordance with their country’s policy. If you are planning to remain in your country of residence, you will not need a birth certificate translation.

As a recognised legal identity document, birth certificates are used for marriage proceedings, mortgage applications, financial applications, school and higher education applications, driver’s license applications and some job applications, to name a few.

What is Certified Translation?

In the UK, a certified translation, also known as an accredited or official translation, is one that is translated by a notable professional and comes with a statement made by the translator, or translation agency guaranteeing its accuracy. This is accompanied by the date, company details and credentials for proof of authenticity. However, it’s important to mention that there are sometimes different certification levels and authority stamps that an official translation can need.

At Absolute Translations, our company certification is accepted by UK authorities. This includes NARIC, the UK Home Office, high street banks, NHS, courts and Universities.

What is a Notarised Translation?

Some jurisdictions require you to have your translated documents notarised before they can be legally recognised by the jurisdiction or the authority. This is often the case for documents that have been translated for use in another country. This is applicable to birth certificates.

With notarised translations, the Notary Public will attach a notarial certificate to your translated document to attest the validity of the translation in question. Throughout the process, a notary is on hand, alongside a specialist team of certification experts, to ensure that standard notarisations are implemented immediately after translation. In some cases, specialist documentation requires notarial investigation. In this instance, the process can sometimes take longer than a standard certification.

Certified Translation of a Birth Certificate

Before utilising birth certificate certified translation services, be sure to look at the specific requirements of the country in question. Typically, anyone wishing to have a birth certificate translated will need a sworn translator who is recognised by the court. In other cases, a notarised translation may be needed. Birth certificates are usually only recognised as certified translations by local authorities.

Here at Absolute Translations, we provide legally certified birth certificate translations in the UK from a huge number of languages into English. We can also help if you need your UK birth certificate translated into another language for official use abroad. We offer four levels of translations, including our standard service that can be used for most legal purpose, but if you need a Notary or a legalised copy, we offer that too! Our aim is to provide a simple service that is fast, efficient and reliable. So, you can rest assured that your documents are legally robust.

Certifiably Excellent

Here at Absolute Translations, our birth certificate certified translation services are of the highest quality.

It takes a lot of dedication and attention to detail to achieve certification and unfortunately, many translation services don’t make the cut. Check for ISO 27001:2013 accreditation, which is a certification specific to the translation industry. Membership in the Association of Translation companies is a good sign too!

Remember you want a company who has a credible reputation in both professional and personal fields. Seek a vendor that has expertise and experience, with notable examples of their work and testimonials from real clients. It’s imperative that certified, sworn or notarised translations can stand up in any legal setting. Choose your provider wisely, to guarantee the exact results you’re after.
