Our residency program's motto is "Driven. Supported." As we approach interview season, I've been reflecting on what that's meant for me as a faculty member @WiscPeds. Read my story below... what does being driven and supported in your work mean to you?

Did you know that diaphragmatic breathing can reduce reflux? Love non pharma intervention options! Presented here at #SAHM23 r/t eating disorders, of which reflux is often a complication esp during refeeding… but I may try it myself after my fave spicy foods!

I have a soft spot for ARFID. GREAT workshop at #SAHM23

Abortion care is health care. Ways to advocate.

@DocMcCafferty Sounds like you’re nailing it @DocMcCafferty You’ve successfully built a village and you’re using it— that makes you, your kiddo, and the whole village stronger 💪🏻 ❤️

“Abortion is life affirming and life saving care … laws restricting abortion access harm patients”
#SAHM23 #SAHM2023

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

Most minors who need abortion care involve their parents (and want them involved) if it’s safe and right for them to do so. Forcing it doesn’t repair damaged relationships between youth and their guardians, and judicial bypass has harm. #SAHM23

@IngaManskopf The map at the top of the thread was access to gender affirming care. Abortion one shown today (pic here) at #SAHM23

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

Quiz time…. Who can guess what this slide from #SAHM2023 Hot Topic shows us?

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

@IngaManskopf No, though I’d love to see that too. Wisconsin would be dark red if it was for that…

[Rebekah Fenton, MD, MPH, FAAP (she/her) @RFentonMD]

The AAP’s new center for media use will focus on reframing this narrative. Consider social media use as developmentally appropriate, connection, relieving, and a place where they take risks.

Consider it like driving, it has risks but helps teens get somewhere. #SAHM23

Texted this gem to my oldest. He ❤️s to redirect me when I’m overdoing it. I try to respond w gratitude. We keep each other accountable on being present >> mindless scrolling (alluring to us both!). Further ammo for him😊 Thx #SAHM23 @SMAHRTeam for keeping adults honest too.

@WiscPediatrics @TeenDocCody being a boss mama and doc! Integrating work and life while supporting the health of teens and getting in some CME. You inspire! #SAHM23
(Disclaimer: doing CME while still literally in the hospital postpartum not required for boss mama doc status!)

#SAHM23 How it started vs How it’s going. Full circle. ❤️

Did you know higher exposure of crops to CO2 decreases the nutrient content of crops? I did not! Climate health is kids’ health. #SAHM23
(Rise in food insecurity attributable to lots of reasons including climate change, COVID pandemic, war in Ukraine, supply chain)

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

Why is climate health, kids health? See below. For 3 summers the air quality in Seattle was so poor we couldn’t go outside for weeks. Not the reason for our move, but a contributor. #SAHM23

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

@stephrstephr @aspyre @ravenscimaven Indeed. They both left a mark, but as far as math…. Calculus has stuck around longer than fluxions!

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

#SAHM23 I can’t tweet right 🤦‍♀️

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

Eating Disorders pro tip: don’t use (or say!) “ideal body weight”. Use estimated treatment goal weight based on prior growth trajectory. Yep, some folx should have weight goals well above the median BMI. #SAHM2023

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

#SAHM23 keeps getting better… ran into @AllymissLove in the hotel work out room. Providing the best care doe adolescents requires caring for ourselves too, right?!?!

[Emily R, MD MEd @Adolescent_Doc]

Bias check #2- people in large bodies can be malnourished, have ED’s (in fact are at higher risk), and at risk for refeeding syndrome. #SAHM2023
