  2. Whether or not you decide to have kids is entirely up to you, but it is perfectly normal to have doubts. Many people will try to pressure you into having children, especially your own family. But if you feel that it's not right for you, then you should stick to your guns. There is nothing wrong with being childless. #Antinatalism #ChildFree #Parenting #Pregnancy

  10. In a controlled trial of 215 pregnant Ecuadorean women, the treatment group was provided with a diet that was presumed to conform to ancestral norms from 12 weeks to birth. They also received diet counseling. Ultrasound imaging at four times during pregnancy showed greater growth of subcortical brain structures in fetuses of the treatment group.

  19. Most pregnant Indigenous women in Canada have drastically different public health care experiences than other pregnant Canadian women. Many pregnant Indigenous women still have valid, justified fears about systematic racism in public health care because most are still treated like shit. That is a fact. I refuse to give much praise to Canadian public health care until they actually do better, on this ongoing systematic racism issue - as well as doing better on masking up in all medical/health care settings. Eugenics in Canada is happening to this day - with ongoing systematic racism & lack of public health safety by medical staff, who should know better but aren't choosing to do better.

  20. Postpartum depression is one of the most common complications of childbirth — about one in eight people experience it after giving birth. @KnowableMag reports on a new blood test that can predict pregnant people's risk for the condition so they can take steps to reduce the likelihood of its onset.

  21. “Fetal personhood” activists struggle to maintain the fiction they are neutral on birth control

    When asked about their intentions to restrict or protect access to birth control, Republican lawmakers and leaders of the anti-abortion movement will typically point out the fact that there’s no bill currently under consideration explicitly aimed at banning #contraception.

    As journalist Jessica Valenti noted in her "Abortion, Every Day" newsletter, the president of Ohio Right to Life mocked a state Democrat who warned of the risk to birth control by saying,
    “she can’t cite a piece of legislation that bans contraception … it’s fear-mongering.”

    Susan B. Anthony #Pro-#Life #America’s website calls it a “MYTH” that Republicans want to stop people from getting birth control.

    “FACT: No state anywhere has banned birth control,” it says.

    And yet taking one big swing to restrict access has never been the strategy of the anti-contraception playbook.

    Rather, activists either maintain neutrality on birth control or say nothing while actively working to conflate abortion with birth control and pass laws that redefine life as beginning at conception.

    As journalist Christina Cauterucci pointed out at Slate, the anti-abortion group #Americans #United #for #Life claims on its website that it takes “no stance on the underlying issue of contraceptive use,”
    but elsewhere it insists that people who use emergency contraception
    “take the lives of their unborn children.”

    When Mother Jones reporter Kiera Butler attended the annual conference of the anti-abortion group #Heartbeat #International in 2022, she found restriction of birth control to be a major theme, with several sessions dedicated to the topic.

    The push to redefine the start of #personhood as the point of #conception holds real implications for fertility treatments and the wide range of available birth control methods.

    Many lawmakers in states with such “fetal personhood” laws on the books have not fully grappled with the practical consequences of how enforcing those laws in the post-Roe era might work.

    In the near future, most Republicans will likely continue to dismiss the idea that there’s any threat to birth control at all, and leaders of anti-abortion organizations will surely do their best to change the subject.

    But ♦️pay attention to how fights over expanding access to birth control
    — including nonhormonal methods like condoms
    — play out.

    ♦️Pay attention to proposals to gut funding for #TitleX, a federal program that provides birth control to millions of low-income people in the United States.

    ♦️Pay attention to efforts in Congress to restrict access to contraception in foreign aid spending bills.

    ♦️And pay attention to how courts and lawmakers aim to expand the definition of abortion.

  22. In rationalizing the idea that 😨birth control can somehow abort a pregnancy before a pregnancy begins😨, activists make a number of claims.

    #Human #Life #International, a global Catholic group, maintains that anything that prevents implantation is an abortion-inducing agent.

    #IUDs, they insist, cause “early abortions.”

    #Students #for #Life of America likewise claims all forms of hormonal birth control, including IUDs and the Pill, are abortifacients.

    Georgia Republican Rep. #Marjorie #Taylor #Greene went so far as to proclaim that #PlanB emergency contraception “kills a baby in the womb once a woman is already pregnant” even though studies have shown the drug interferes with ovulation but does not inhibit implantation.

    Greene isn’t the only Republican lawmaker blurring the lines.

    Colorado Rep. #Lauren #Boebert tried to block funds for “abortifacient contraceptive drugs,” while Montana Rep. #Matt #Rosendale tried adding emergency contraception to a bill barring use of the federal funding for abortion.

    In 2022, in perhaps one of the most glaring examples, Missouri Republicans pushed unsuccessfully to restrict public funding for IUDs and emergency contraception, with one of the state senators who led it proclaiming that “life begins at conception,” and “anything that destroys that life is abortion, it’s not birth control.”

    Just this past week in Iowa, House Republicans attempted to amend a bipartisan bill to legalize over-the-counter birth control by adding new language that would require pharmacists to provide misleading and inaccurate information implying contraceptives are dangerous and a form of abortion.

    #Pulse #Life #Advocates, an Iowa group opposing the contraception bill, claims on its website that birth control “kills babies.”

    Many of these objections will sound familiar to anyone who followed the fight around the Affordable Care Act 15 years ago.

    The political groundwork was laid in 2010 when the #Tea #Party movement came into power and fought alongside the #Catholic #Church against requirements that employer health insurance plans cover birth control.

    And in 2014, the retail chain #Hobby #Lobby won its case before the US Supreme Court in which it argued it shouldn’t have to provide employees with IUDs or emergency contraception since its ownership viewed such things as abortion.
