Preterm Labor

Six to eight percent of all babies born arrive before 37 weeks’ gestation. These small numbers, however, account for 75 percent of all the neonatal deaths – a significant statistic. It costs as much to care for 5 preterm babies as it does 150 pregnant women. Everyone agrees that prevention is the best approach since Mother Nature provides the best incubator. But this is easier said than done.

An Obstetrical Stew

It’s extremely difficult to prevent something when you aren’t sure of the exact cause, as in 50 to 60 percent of preterm labors.

Preeclampsia

Facts and Fallacies

Preeclampsia has probably been around for as long as women have been getting pregnant. It’s also known as toxemia, pregnancy -induced hypertension, or EPH gestosis. Preeclampsia is the most misunderstood and myth-ridden disease in pregnancy. Let’s clear up some of the more common myths with some facts.

  • Preeclampsia isn’t related to obesity or excessive weight gain during pregnancy.
  • It isn’t caused by salt (sodium chloride). Women with preeclampsia actually have normal sodium levels. Salt restriction isn’t recommended.
  • The condition isn’t cured or alleviated by taking water pills (diuretics) for the swelling.
  • Preeclampsia isn’t caused by a diseased placenta, poisons, or toxins in the body. The term “toxemia” is still used, but it isn’t an accurate one to describe the disease.
  • It isn’t prevented by vitamin therapy or high-protein or other special diets. There’s no known prevention.
