Full textAbstract:
While more doctoral students are pregnant and/or parenting in their doctoral programs than previously, little research has focused on their experiences. This qualitative study ( N = 28) explored the experiences of female doctoral students who were pregnant during their doctoral program (in a health-care field) and their decision-making about careers postgraduation. This study examined participants’ perceptions of the implicit and explicit culture, professional expectations, and the role of these experiences on career goals and trajectories. Participants described an academic culture of high expectations, in which mothers could be successful if they maintained a silence about their identity as a mother and ensured that their family life did not negatively impact their work productivity. Some perceived lost opportunities in graduate school and/or on the job market due to pregnancies and parenting during graduate school. The impact of these experiences on postgraduate careers was diverse, but the majority spoke of wanting to find a position in a family-friendly organization where family was valued and work life balance was possible. For some, this was an academic position, while for others this was a full-time practice position or part-time work.

Full textAbstract:
Adolescence is a transitional period from childhood to adulthood. During this period, both physical and psychological conditions change. Adolescent pregnancy causes a higher risk for negative outcomes in terms of both physical and psychosocial aspects to the pregnant girl, baby, and husband. The research aimed to identify information needs for adolescent reproductive health using the perspective of adolescent with a pregnancy experience. The research used a qualitative design. The results of the study were divided into three themes, namely knowledge of adolescent reproductive health, access to reproductive health information, and reproductive health service providers. All the informants were under 20 years of age. In terms of education, most of the informants did not graduate from high school; even some of them graduated only from elementary school. In terms of knowledge about adolescent reproductive health, it was shown that adolescents did not have a comprehensive understanding of reproductive health, including reproductive organs and the process of pregnancy. Most of the informants thought that reproductive health was the health condition related to only the genital organs. They felt embarrassed to ask questions to their parents and they wanted to try something new. In terms of access to adolescent reproductive health services, access to information about reproductive health was still limited and there was a lack of information about how to access information about reproductive health. In addition, all of the informants said they did not know other programs due to lack of publications. Meanwhile, in terms of information needs for adolescent reproductive health, all the informants mentioned the need for information about adolescent reproductive health. These informants said that the presence of adolescent reproductive health information could prevent adolescent pregnancy. In terms of service recommendation, it can be in the form of continuous socialization at schools by teachers and health workers as well as consulting services at schools or at health centers.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this qualitative data analysis was to gain insights into women's experiences over the course of pregnancy subsequent to prior perinatal loss. Diaries from 19 pregnant women with a history of miscarriage, stillbirth, or neonatal death who participated in an intervention study were the data source. The participants were primarily Caucasian, 23 to 41 years old, with a history of one to six prior losses, high school to graduate school education, and a wide range of incomes. Inductive thematic analysis of pregnancy diary entries was done. A metaphor of navigating a pregnancy journey that feels scary and uncertain, toward the goal of reaching their desired destination, a healthy infant, was identified from women's personal accounts. Six themes were identified: (a) Staying Alert: Noting Physical Symptoms, (b) Dealing with Uncertainty: Expressing Emotions, (c) Dreaming of the Destination: Evolving Thoughts of Baby, (d) Traveling Together: Connecting with Others, and (e) Moving Forward: Reflecting on Sense of Self. The interaction of several themes is described as (f) Staying on Track: Navigating through Pregnancy. Women may find journaling helpful in dealing with the anxiety and fear that characterize pregnancy after loss. Viewing pregnancy after perinatal loss as similar to navigating an uncertain journey may provide greater understanding of the emotional, physical, and social challenges that women may experience. Recognition that women with a history of perinatal loss may be anxious and fearful during pregnancy will increase sensitive care.

I developed a passion for reproductive biology when taking a course in Physiology of Reproduction at Louisiana State University while preparing to apply for Veterinary School at Texas A&M University. My career path changed. I entered graduate school, obtained a Ph.D. and have enjoyed an academic career conducting research in uterine biology and pregnancy in animal science departments at the University of Florida and at Texas A&M University. My contributions to science include: (1) identification of molecules secreted by or transported by uterine epithelia into the uterine lumen that are critical to successful establishment and maintenance of pregnancy, (2) discovery of steroids and proteins required for pregnancy-recognition signalling and their mechanisms of action in pigs and ruminants, (3) patterns of fetal–placental development and placental transport of nutrients, (4) identification of links between nutrients and components of histotroph that affect fetal–placental development, (5) characterising aspects of the endocrinology of pregnancy and (6) contributing to efforts to exploit the therapeutic value of interferon tau, particularly for treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Current research focuses on select nutrients in the uterine lumen, specifically amino acids, glucose and fructose, that affect conceptus development, the therapeutic potential for interferon tau, stromal–epithelial cell signalling whereby progesterone and oestrogen act via steroid receptors in uterine stromal cells to stimulate secretion of growth factors (e.g. fibroblast growth factors and hepatocyte growth factor) that regulate uterine epithelial cells and conceptus trophectoderm, and roles of toll-like receptors expressed by uterine epithelia and conceptus trophectoderm in pregnancy.

BackgroundIn May 2018, abortion laws in Ireland were liberalised allowing medical abortion for the first time. It was envisaged that Irish GPs would provide this service.AimTo elicit the views and level of preparedness of Irish GPs to provide medical termination of pregnancy.MethodIn total 222 practising GPs were surveyed. Participants are affiliated with the Graduate Entry Medical School (GEMS) in the University of Limerick, as well as graduates of the University Specialist Training Programme in General Practice.ResultsThe response rate was 57% (127/222): 93.7% of GPs were willing to share abortion information with their patients; 48.0% would be willing to prescribe abortion pills before 12 weeks’ gestation, with 37.0% unwilling to do so. A further 40.9% of responders believed that such a service should not be part of general practice, with a further 17.3% indicating uncertainty. 72.4% believed that those who do not wish to be part of the process should be entitled to a conscientious objection (CO) but should also be obliged to refer a woman to a participating doctor. Over four-fifths (82.7%) of GPs had no training in this area of practice, with 3.2% indicating that they had sufficient training. The majority of responders feel that necessary support services such as counselling are not currently available.ConclusionExploring the views and experiences of GPs in Ireland on this topic reveals many issues which need to be resolved before the service can be rolled out in a safe manner. It will be vital for state and professional bodies to provide appropriate education and guidance.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT The evaluation of abdominal or pelvic pain and/or vaginal bleeding using pelvic ultrasound is a common practice of the emergency physician. In fact, the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) in 2008 published guidelines listing evaluation of pregnancy as a core application and evaluation of the adnexa as a secondary application for emergency bedside pelvic ultrasound. In 2012 the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) along with the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM) introduced milestones into residency programs to provide a framework of cognitive and behavioral performance standards, including procedure-based skills. The milestones are the knowledge, skills, attitudes and other attributes for each of the ACGME competencies that monitor resident performance throughout the residency and range from less to more advanced levels. Goal-directed focused ultrasound is one of twenty-three specific milestones that will be measured during emergency medicine training. Discussion will focus on how to teach focused goaldirected pelvic ultrasound based on the five levels within this milestone. How to cite this article Greer VL, Brosseit MW.

BackgroundIn May 2018, the Irish Constitution was changed following a referendum allowing termination of pregnancy by abortion. It is envisaged that the majority of terminations will be by medical abortion and will take place in general practice before 12 weeks gestation.AimTo elicit attitudes and level of preparedness of Irish GPs to provide medical abortion services.Design & settingCross-sectional study of 222 GPs who were associated with the University of Limerick Graduate Entry Medical School (GEMS) and GP training programme.MethodAn anonymous online questionnaire was distributed via email. Reminders were sent 2 and 4 weeks later.ResultsThe response rate was 57.2% (n = 127/222). Of the responders, 105 (82.7%) had no training in this area, with only 4 (3.1%) indicating that they had sufficient training. Nearly all responders (n = 119, 93.7%) were willing to share abortion information with patients. Just under half of responders (n = 61, 48.0%) would be willing to prescribe abortion pills, with 47 (37.0%) unwilling to do so. Only 53 (41.7%) responders believed that provision of abortion services should be part of general practice, with 52 (40.9%) saying that it should not. As to whether doctors should be entitled to a conscientious objection but should also be obliged to refer the patient, 92 (72.4%) responders agreed. Over two-thirds of responders (n = 89, 70.1%) felt that necessary patient support services are not currently available.ConclusionThere is a lack of training and a considerable level of unwillingness to participate in this process among Irish GPs. There is also a perceived lack of patient support services for women experiencing unwanted pregnancy. It is incumbent upon state and professional bodies to address these issues.

IntroductionThe objective of this randomised controlled trial (RCT) is to examine the effects of smartphone-based cognitive–behavioural therapy (CBT) in preventing the onset of major depressive episodes (MDE) among pregnant women.Methods and analysisThe target study population will be pregnant women of 16–20 weeks gestation who are currently users of ‘Luna Luna Baby’, the most widely used app for pregnant women in Japan. Those who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomly allocated to the 6-module internet CBT programme that was newly developed for pregnant women (n=2500), or to a treatment-as-usual control group (n=2500). Participants in the intervention groups will be required to complete the programme by 32 weeks gestation. The primary outcomes are the number of new onsets of MDE, measured by using WHO Composite International Diagnostic Interview 3.0 at 32 weeks gestation and 3 months post partum. Survival analysis will be conducted to test for the effectiveness of the intervention on the time to the onset of MDE.Ethics and disseminationThe study plan has been approved by the Research Ethics Review Board of the Graduate School of Medicine/Faculty of Medicine, the University of Tokyo (2019150NI). If the intervention programmes are found to produce a significant positive effect in this RCT, these programmes can be made available for all users of the app in the future.Trial registration numberUMIN000038190; Pre-results.

Pregnant women will experience various changes during pregnancy such as physiological, psychological and social changes. The inability of mothers to adapt to these changes not only causes disruption during pregnancy, but also it can continue in the postpartum period, one of them is postpartum depression. This study aimed to explore the experiences of adaptation of pregnant women, includes perceived stimulus, coping used and adaptation behavior responses indicated by pregnant women. This is a qualitative research by using phenomenology approach at the public health center in Kabupaten Kampar, Riau. Participants in this study were 9 pregnant women, aged 24-38 years, Junior High School-Graduate Education, gestational age 5-29 weeks, the number of children living 1-5 people, children rank age 9 months to 3.5 years, work varies, namely housewives, corporate employees, honors teachers and traders. The collecting data of indepth interview method and observations, recorded using a tape recorder, and then took notes the results of these observations. Based on the data obtained that 7 themes namely 1) Depressive symptoms in pregnant women; 2) Complaints of pregnant women related to nutritional intake; 3) Health problems of pregnant women; 4) Family problem 5) family financial problems 6) coping used by pregnant women 7) adaptive behavioral responses of pregnant women. There were various stimuli felt by pregnant women, namely physiological, psychological and social stimuli. Coping used by pregnant women in reducing the perceived stimulus that was adaptive and not adaptive coping, while the adaptation behavior response indicated by pregnant women was response to physiological adaptation behavior, self-concept, role function and interdependent. Therefore, it is necessary to develop models in the form of providing education to couples of pregnant women in helping mothers adapt, in an effort to prevent the occurrence of postpartum depression.

Anderson thrives in graduate school where he begins a career-long friendly rivalry with Walter Kohn. He consciously chooses not to work with superstar theorist Julian Schwinger and pursues a PhD supervised by John Van Vleck. His thesis problem is a quantum mechanical calculation of the microwave absorption spectrum of small molecules. His social time is spent almost exclusively with non-physics graduate students, including the mathematician-comedic songwriter Tom Lehrer. He meets Joyce Gothwaite during a vacation trip home and only a short time passes before they marry in Boston and she becomes pregnant. Daughter Susan is born and Anderson completes his thesis work quickly. Money is tight.

Full textAbstract:
Dealing with any great stressor challenges our core beliefs about ourselves and about life in general. Most of us have certain reasonable expectations of how things will go in our lives. We will graduate from high school, maybe go to college, probably get married, likely have children, and so on. Small wobbles from our intended path in life are understandable to us. Although we all have different tolerances for frustration in dealing with obstacles in our way, we usually handle these troubles well. None of us expects that tragedy will strike. We never think during pregnancy that our child may have a disability or even that our child could die. We have typical expectations for our child’s life similar to those of our own lives. Thus, when we finally are told that our child has autism, our world comes crashing down. Our worldview is shattered. The plans we had made for our child’s life and our futures are forever changed in an instant. The way we cope with this immense challenge changes everything, for us and our child. At some point during any discussion of autism, we must bring spirituality and religion into the conversation. It is impossible not to do so. Any parent whose child has received the autism diagnosis knows this to be true. This is because in order to cope and find acceptance, we must find meaning. How can we accept this news without adjusting our worldview or understanding of life? We must come to terms with the questions that inevitably arise, such as “Why me?”, “How could this happen?”, “Whose fault is this?”, “What did I do wrong?” Other questions that come to mind for those who already believe in a higher power are “Why would God let this happen?”, “Why did God do this to me?”, “Am I being punished?”, “Why would God allow such suffering, especially for a child?” Sometimes it is only through great trials that we realize the need to find deeper meaning.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter presents a selective account of Lovie’s childhood. Lovie’s interest in pregnancy and birth takes root on the Beard family farm where lay midwives, known as grannies, granny women or granny midwives, attended the deliveries of African American tenant farm women. These traditional midwives, who were community based and served women of color as well as poor white women, learned their vocation through an informal apprenticeship with an older woman, often a relative. When Lovie graduates from high school, her mother insists that she continue her education and pursue a career, advising her that she “can’t rely on menfolks.” Following the contours of Lovie’s life, the reader begins a journey through the last century of midwifery history in the South.
