   How Prenatal Care is Failing Families | Preeclampsia & HELLP Syndrome Management with Tomeka Isaac

   Join us for the first interview of 2023 where we will be hearing the story of Jace's Journey Co-Founder, Tomeka James Isaac, who is opening up about her traumatic experience with prenatal care that led to her son's preventable death & her own life being dangerously close to being lost too. She has since become an advocate for maternal health, specifically working to address the racial disparities in maternal health outcomes. As black mothers are more likely to suffer a stillbirth & be at risk for maternal mortality, this is a critically important mission & we hope you will join us in demanding better care for ALL families. Please watch & share this episode! It's up to us to make sure we hold the health system accountable & make sure more babies & mothers make it home safely. #preeclampsia #HELLPSyndrome #blackmaternalhealth JOIN OUR CIRCLE Make sure to subscribe to be alerted about our future episodes, which will feature honest discussions with everyone from birth workers, to birthing parents, to cord and placenta experts, to OB's, to maternal mental health providers, to advocates + more!

   Measuring Placenta In Pregnancy | Why This Tool Can Help Save Babies with Dr. Harvey Kliman

   It may come as a surprise to you that your baby's life-sustaining organ, the placenta, is NOT routinely measured throughout pregnancy. It's as if this necessary organ is just expected to continue growing appropriately & no one bothers to make sure. No wonder placenta related issues (including small placentas) are a common cause of stillbirth! Fresh off the stage of the #bigPUSH2022 in Washington, D.C., where he proclaimed to bereaved parents "it is NOT the your fault", Dr. Harvey Kliman, Yale's World-Renowned MD, PhD, placenta expert is joining us to explain how the placenta can be measured with a simple ultrasound technique he & his father developed (there's even an instructional video & hand-out for providers on measuretheplacenta.org & an APP: Merwins EPV Calculator). There's no reason why healthy babies should continue to die if our country can add this tool to our provider's toolbox. If an issue is noted with the growth of our babies' placentas, then providers can take necessary steps to monitor our babies & deliver them early if needed. No more waiting to see what happens! We deserve better care for ALL families to have a fighting chance to bring their baby home alive. Check out this episode & share with your friends, family & providers!
