Suicide & overdose deaths, combined, are the leading cause of death in some states. But those deaths aren't picked up in national reports. New moms are drowning, and each pre- and postnatal appointment is a missed opportunity for them to be saved. https://t.co/rMNa32ApQ7
The USPSTF today issued recommendations for supporting healthy weight gain -- and avoiding excess weight gain -- during pregnancy. It's the first time they've taken up this issue. Helpful or harmful? Not all experts agree. https://t.co/eLMKCGvtC2 cc: @JShepherd_MD@HaleyNeidich

Very Important piece by @alexfrostwrites and I'm also quoted in the article. Did you know that many OB practices make families pay up front for their birth? We need to call to end this problematic practice.
When @alexfrostwrites was asked to pre-pay for her future childbirth, she was only four weeks pregnant—and had just finished monthly payments on the D&C from her previous miscarriage.

George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.
A lot of my “so called fans” are asking why I don’t just shut up and make you laugh. My Grandparents were Jews. For THAT they were sent to Camps & forced to see their families murdered. If you have a voice & you remain silent, you are a part of the problem. Not the solution.
