📣 New Publication What does effective co-design of stillbirth research with bereaved parents look like? Find our recommendations in the paper: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A 30-50% increase in Mental Disorders Among Offspring Prenatally Exposed to Systemic Glucocorticoids. (At 15 y.o.). Big study, long follow up. Only give antenatal steroids when needed. Not just in case. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

🆕When calculating gestational-age-specific #stillbirth rates, the fetus-at-risk (FAR) or continuity corrected fetus-at-risk (ccFAR) approaches provide the most accurate representation of risk across pregnancy & better enable clinicians to act on risk 🔗shorturl.at/uT0mi
