Really excited to be showcasing this fantastic safety initiative and representing RBFT and OxfordAHSN at @PrimaryCareShow@EileenDudley10 @WendyRa77367806 @RBFTmaternity @CEO_RoyalBerks
We want to reassure women that although the COVID-19 vaccines offered to people who are pregnant – Pfizer and Moderna - are relatively new, they are not ‘live’ vaccines and they cannot cause infection. Watch this video to hear from @ProfAsmaKhalil.
If you're pregnant, it's recommended you receive COVID-19 vaccination. According to @MidwivesRCM, nearly 200 pregnant people were admitted to hospital with COVID-19, across the UK, between May & July. They have prepared this handy fact sheet to help you make an informed decision.
Is it safe to receive the COVID-19 vaccine while pregnant? 💉
The answer is yes. We know the vaccine is safe, while catching Covid can double the chance of a stillbirth.
Louise Perkins - Consultant Midwife - explains why the Covid vaccine is recommended for pregnant women.
We are pleased to announce our official partnership with The Positive Birth Company to offer BLACK pregnant women FREE access to their online Hypnobirthing Digital Pack. Please share this with every BLACK pregnant woman you know https://t.co/7TSzgsHRK2
Are you expressing for a premature baby? Being relaxed, comfortable and warm helps your breast milk to flow. Having your baby, or a photo of baby nearby can also help. Check out @Tommys_baby tips for feeding premature babies: https://t.co/plHhWE8IMd #BreastfeedingCelebrationWeek
You don't need a special diet while breastfeeding; try to include a variety of fresh, healthy foods. You should also consider taking a vitamin D supplement (containing 10mcg), especially if you are spending more time indoors. Check out @NHS_Parents tips: https://t.co/zJzxm5cyyu
We aren't aware of any advice for babies to wear masks, whether they are infected or not. There is a potential risk of suffocation and other hazards with doing this. The latest Government guidance says that Children under 2 yrs. do not need to wear masks.
