Checkout the @bjog.bsky.social health equity issue loads of really interesting papers and includes our caesarean birth core information set doi.org/10.1111/1471... and risk communication survey doi.org/10.1111/1471...

How should we communicate information about birth? We found that the 100 person icon array seems to be both best understood and preferred. See our survey results from the @theoptionsstudy.bsky.social

Such a great research meeting for STORK talking about @theoptionsstudy.bsky.social amongst other things. So fun to have our medical student colleagues with us to join in the discussions! Can't wait for the next one to enthuse us all again! @liverpooluni.bsky.social

So much interesting research coming from Liverpool Uni! So proud to be part of the Women's Health team! @liverpooluni.bsky.social @adweeks.bsky.social @theoptionsstudy.bsky.social

Brilliant to see @theoptionsstudy.bsky.social results shared at the RCOG Annual Academic Meeting!

Thanks to Ben from @theoptionsstudy.bsky.social for sharing our results with colleagues from across the UK!

Fantastic day at RCOG annual academic meeting! So many posters and presentations sharing our work!!! @theoptionsstudy.bsky.social @storkresearchgroup.bsky.social

And there’s more posters about GDM risks and Induction-amazing job team….there’s still more to come tomorrow! @storkresearchgroup.bsky.social

Delighted to share our study analysing 553 women's views on what they want from antenatal education. NHS antenatal classes are trusted and form a core element of the pregnancy journey. Inconsistent provision highlights the need for a standardised, comprehensive curriculum. rdcu.be/d8vS3

This work was the foundation for a @healthfoundation.bsky.social funded study to co-design an antenatal education class bmjopenquality.bmj.com/content/13/2... such an amazing opportunity to work alongside inspirational women, birthing people, partners and colleagues.

A qualitative exploration of women’s expectations of birth and knowledge of birth interventions following antenatal education - BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth Background Expectations of birth, and whether they are met, influence postnatal psychological wellbeing. Intrapartum interventions, for example induction of labour, are increasing due to a changing pr...

Read our study sharing the experiences of 46 women's antenatal education. Birth expectations are informed by Antenatal Education - if it isn't balanced - a mismatch between expectations and experience may be precipitated. An antenatal education curriculum is needed! doi.org/10.1186/s128...

We found a high burden of maternal death following CS in this low-resource setting, particularly related to infection. Multiple health systems factors contributed.There is urgent need to develop and trial interventions to improve the safety of CS in such settings #maternalhealth
