Delighted that our caesarean birth core information set paper is in the BJOG’s health equity issue today https://t.co/2EeYiytzwz

What a summer! Great work by our medical student colleague Vicky illuminating how we should communicate risk....100 icon arrays seems to be both understood and preferred. So much more to learn but we're off to a great start! Thanks @Options_Study

Are you a nurse, midwife, hospital doctor, GP or community pharmacist? Do you have a role in maternal vaccinations during pregnancy? Do you care for newborns at risk of respiratory infections who are too young to be vaccinated? Please complete the survey: https://t.co/A5tYJOF7H6

Before and after birth women say they need similar antenatal information about interventions during birth including induction of labour and instrumental birth.

Excellent presentation Ben! Sharing the Caesarean Birth Core Information set results @BlairBellRS @RCObsGyn meeting! @Options_Study @STORK_Group @NIHRresearch @NIHRinvolvement @LivUniResearch @LivuniILCaMS

[Abi Merriel @abimerriel]

Very excited to see our @Options_Study work presented @BlairBellRS @RCObsGyn @NIHRresearch @NIHRinvolvement @LiverpoolWomens @LivUniResearch @LivuniILCaMS

[Birth Options @Options_Study]

Public patient involvement groups are a key part of our women’s health research. It is vital that we involve women in the ongoing work to improve the obstetric care they receive. Most recently, we went down to Granby Children’s centre to host a meeting as part of the Options Study. Thank you to all of the incredible women involved and Granby for hosting us! #obstetrics #womenshealth #pregnancy #PPI

Thanks to @KeerthanaAnand1 for the great presentation sharing the association between fetal growth restriction and 5 year cardiovascular events-especially heart failure @STORK_Group @LiverpoolCCS @LivUniResearch @LivuniILCaMS @LiverpoolWomens

Sharing our study of 553 women's views on what they want from antenatal education. NHS antenatal classes are trusted & form a core element of pregnancy journeys. Inconsistent provision highlights the need for a standardised, comprehensive curriculum. https://t.co/2K5I1cSgw8

We are so pleased to share the newest paper from our research group exploring what happens to women's expectations and knowledge around birth following antenatal education.
Does it precipitate a mismatch between birth expectations and experiences?
