  • Abortion on TV in 2015
    Abortion on TV in 2015 In 2015, we counted 20 times American television shows discussed abortion. For some shows, this was just a quick mention, but for 12 of these cases, it was a central part of an ongoing story. Each of these 12 storylines included a character making (or who had made) a decision about getting an abortion. In 8 cases, the character actually got an abortion—that means 67% of the characters depicted consider abortion had an abortion. (This is on par with our 2014 data, where 11 abortion stories featured 7 characters getting abortions. However, it does represent a noticeable uptick from previous decades, where only 50% of characters considering abortion obtained one.) Three abortions were shown onscreen, including 2 contemporary abortion procedures, which had not previously been shown on television. Additionally, we saw the first portrayal of safe, accurate, and effective use of medication abortion. After an abortion storyline that avoided an actual abortion for Jessa in Season 1 The CW hit Jane the Virgin brought up (“Vagina Panic”), Girls handled abortion abortion in February, when Jane must much differently this time around.

  • Final Revision Sep 13 2016
    Countering Technocracy: "Natural" Birth in The Business of Being Born and Call the Midwife Chikako Takeshita Associate Professor Gender & Sexuality Studies University of California, Riverside Final Revision Submitted to Feminist Media Studies September 13, 16 Abstract Feminist media studies scholars concur that representations of childbirth in popular media normalize medical domination of maternity care and women's subordination to it. This article aims to fill the gap in the dearth of academic analysis of alternative representations of childbearing by examining the documentary film The Business of Being Born and the BBC TV drama series Call the Midwife. Although they are situated in disparate socio-historical contexts, both productions push against medicalization and present positive images of "natural" childbirth. Business systematically critiques medicalization of birth in the U.S. and presents midwifery-assisted homebirth as the solution. Call counters the dogma of necessary medical attention during childbirth by showing how midwifery dominated during the mid-twentieth century in a London neighborhood. Call also portrays midwives and a physician collaboratively providing maternal care in an impoverished neighborhood. Reviewed together, Business and Call augment each other as the former reveals the contemporary struggles and solutions devised to de-medicalize birth and the latter serves as an example of how homebirths may be supported by medico-midwifery collaboration in an urban community. Key words: medicalization of childbirth, homebirth, midwifery, media representation, counter-narrative 2 — We must pay attention to the messages circulating about what childbirth is and how it should function Jennifer Ellis West 2011, p.121 --- Birth at home returns power to women Barbara Katz Rothman 2007, p.xxi Childbirth has been thoroughly medicalized in the United States both off and on the screen.

  • There Is a BBC Period Drama Titled Call the Midwife Set in Post-War London’S East End
    Of the Father’s Love Begotten Matthew 1: 18-25 A sermon preached in Duke University Chapel on December 22, 2011 by Dr. Christy Lohr Sapp There is a BBC period drama titled Call the Midwife set in post-war London’s east end. The show is based on the memoirs of a young woman who gained her midwife training among an Anglican order of nuns dedicated to ensuring safer childbirth for the poor. In the Dockland slums of the 1950s, health care was nearly nonexistent, antibiotics were brand-new, contraception was unreliable, and families with 13 or more children were the norm. Working alongside the trained nurses in the convent, the young midwives in the show make frequent visits to the tenements that house the dock workers and their families In one episode, the midwives meet with Winnie and Ted who are both on their second marriage and getting on in years. Ted’s first wife died at an early age leaving him childless, and Winnie has children from a previous marriage. She has been grateful to Ted for taking them in after they found themselves in a lurch following her first husband’s death. Pregnant again in her middle-age, Winnie is in denial about the impending birth to the point of being cagy about wanting to have the child. Ted, on the other hand, is over the moon at the prospect of this child despite his and Winnie’s advanced age. When it comes time to deliver the baby, the midwives feel that Winnie is doing everything in her power to keep the baby in while they are trying to bring the baby out.

  • First Trimester
    EARLY PREGNANCY INFORMATION (up to 12-14 wks) FIRST TRIMESTER WARNING SIGNS Please call the office and speak with a provider if you experience any of the following symptoms: • Bright red vaginal bleeding • Moderate to severe cramping • Fever over 100.4 • Frequent painful urination • Vaginal discharge with an odor SEX: Do enjoy sex during pregnancy! Sex during a normal pregnancy is safe and should remain a source of pleasure for every couple. It is not unusual for desire to fluctuate throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. Be creative! Different sexual positions will have to be used as your body changes. Keep in mind: • You may notice a small amount of bloody mucous after sex. This is normal. • Orgasm may cause some contractions. These are harmless to the baby and will not cause premature labor. • Avoid intercourse if you have red vaginal bleeding, if you are having a series of contractions before 37 weeks of pregnancy, or if you think your bag of water is broken. If you have had multiple miscarriages you should avoid sex during the time when they occurred. • If you have a new partner during pregnancy please make sure to practice safe sex by using condoms TRAVEL: Long distance travel by car, plane (in a pressurized cabin) or train is fine until your 36th week of pregnancy. Break up long trips with stops to stretch and empty your bladder. Be sure to increase your fluid intake and observe appropriate safety measures like wearing your seatbelt low on your abdomen. If you are going out of the country it is important to take a copy of your prenatal medical records with you, ask the receptionist for a copy.

  • Women Religious Answer the Call for the Midwife Globally
    Women religious answer the call for the midwife globally globalsistersreport.org /news/ministry/women-religious-answer-call-midwife-globally-49466 by Dawn Araujo-Hawkins by Dawn Araujo-Hawkins Oct. 2, 2017 in Ministry Picture of Sr. Rose Okoli of the Society of the Holy Child Jesus holding a set of twins (Provided by Society of the Holy Child Jesus) 1/7 It's been five years since "Call the Midwife" heroine Jenny Lee first minced her way through the streets of East London and into the hearts of millions of viewers around the world. The period drama (based on the memoirs of British midwife Jennifer Worth) chronicles Lee's midwifery tutelage in the 1950s and '60s under the wings of the fictionalized Anglican Sisters of St. Raymond Nonnatus. "Call the Midwife" has won a slew of awards in the U.K. and in 2016, riding the tide of the show's global popularity, the British Broadcasting Corporation renewed the series for an additional three seasons. But for certified nurse- midwife and Sister of Divine Providence Kay Kramer, "Call the Midwife" is more than good TV — it's a way for people to have a bit of insight into her world. "It's a beautiful example of sisters doing the work that I do," Kramer said from her northern Kentucky office, just a few hours after assisting at a birth. "That show has fantastic consultants for religious life and fantastic consultants for midwifery. It's so well done." For many international health organizations, midwives are the answer to the world's continuing maternal health crises.

  • Call the Midwife Is a Moving and Intimate Insight Into the Colourful World of Midwifery and Family Life in 1950’S East London
    A Neal Street Production for BBC One Starring Jessica Raine with Jenny Agutter, Pam Ferris, Miranda Hart and Judy Parfitt Based on the best-selling memoirs by Jennifer Worth and dramatised by Heidi Thomas Call the Midwife is a moving and intimate insight into the colourful world of midwifery and family life in 1950’s East London. We are introduced to the community through the eyes of young nurse Jenny Lee as she arrives at Nonnatus House to live and work as a midwife alongside an Order of Nuns. As Jenny comes to terms with her new life, we meet some phenomenal people who prove that their warmth, resilience and determination are to be admired beyond measure. At the heart of this world are the Sisters of St Raymond Nonnatus who have been active in the East End as Anglican nursing nuns since the beginning of the 20th century. The Sisters and the midwives of Nonnatus House carry out many nursing duties across the community. However, with between 80 and 100 babies being born each month in Poplar alone, their primary work is to help bring safe childbirth to women in the area and to look after their countless newborns. The series was commissioned by Danny Cohen, Controller BBC One, and Ben Stephenson, Controller BBC Drama. It was adapted with the blessing and guidance of Jennifer Worth, who worked closely with Neal Street Productions and screenwriter Heidi Thomas (Upstairs Downstairs, Cranford) up until she passed away shortly before filming began in the summer of 2011. Starring newcomer Jessica Raine as Jenny, the cast includes Jenny Agutter, Pam Ferris, Miranda Hart and Judy Parfitt.

  • Division of STD Prevention (DSTDP)
    Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Division of STD Prevention (DSTDP) State Statutory and Regulatory Language Regarding Prenatal Syphilis Screenings in the United States, 2018 Prepared by: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of STD Prevention January 23, 2020 Disclaimer: The information in this document does not represent the official legal positions of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/HHS, or state and local governments, and is not meant to provide specific legal advice. Users of this document should consult with their official state and local legal counsel for specific legal advice and guidance. Executive Summary The number of reported cases of congenital syphilis (CS) has increased every year since 2012 in the United States. From 2012 to 2017, the CS rate increased 177% from 8.4 to 23.3 cases per 100,000 live births.1 CS prevention relies on screening and treatment of pregnant women found to have syphilis. Many states’ laws require syphilis testing of pregnant women. Thus, state policies regarding prenatal syphilis screening may be one way to address rising CS rates through increased screening. This document includes the text of state laws requiring screening of pregnant women for syphilis in the United States, as of December 2018. These results are based upon a 2018 peer reviewed article published in the Maternal and Child Health Journal that analyzes these laws as of 2016; details of the methods used in performing the legal analysis underlying these results can be found in that article.2 This document expands upon that article through an updated legal assessment as of 2018.
