ACOG has been the nation’s leading group of experts in women’s healthcare for 60+ years, caring for millions of women. And now the organization is releasing a new book that empowers pregnant women and new moms. There are obviously a lot of pregnancy books out there, but this one is truly a gamechanger for women.
"Your Pregnancy and Childbirth: Month to Month" (releasing on Jan. 26) is focused on shared decision-making in healthcare, so women can feel empowered in their choices rather than having medical decisions dictated to them. The language is more conversational and includes some updates on how to manage work, travel prenatal visits and breastfeeding during COVID.
Diana Ramos, MD talks about:
- Exercise during and after pregnancy – what exercises are safe during and after pregnancy
- Weight management including the proper diet and exercise plan
- Maternal mortality - common causes and ways to prevent or treat life-threatening pregnancy-related conditions
- Complications in pregnancy such as preeclampsia and gestational diabetes
