Management of Unintended and Abnormal Pregnancy (Hardcover)


Management of Unintended and Abnormal Pregnancy (Hardcover)


$274.44


Access to high quality abortion care is essential to women’s health, as evidenced by the dramatic decrease in pregnancy-related morbidity and mortality since the legalization of abortion in the United States, and by high rates of maternal death and complications in those countries where abortion is still provided under unsafe conditions. The past two decades have brought important advances in abortion care as well as increasing cross-disciplinary use of abortion technologies in women’s health care. Abortion is an important option for pregnant women who have serious medical conditions or fetal abnormalities, and fetal reduction techniques are now well-integrated into infertility treatment to reduce the risks of multiple pregnancies resulting from assisted reproductive technologies. Management of Unintended and Abnormal Pregnancy: Comprehensive Abortion Care is the textbook of the National Abortion Federation, and serves as the standard, evidence-based reference text in abortion care.  This state-of-the-art textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the public health implications of unsafe abortion and reviews the best surgical and medical practices for pregnancy termination, as well as managing ectopic and other abnormal pregnancies. Management of Unintended and Abnormal Pregnancy: Comprehensive Abortion Care is the leading source for a comprehensive understanding of issues related to unintended and abnormal pregnancy.  This textbook: is authored by internationally-known leaders in women`s health care; addresses unintended pregnancy and abortion from historical, legal, public health, clinical, and quality care perspectives; includes chapters on pregnancy loss, ectopic pregnancy, gestational trophoblastic disease, and multifetal pregnancy reduction; covers treatment of pregnancies in the first and second trimester by both m

The Romantic Conception Of Life (Paperback)


The Romantic Conception Of Life (Paperback)


$42.44


"All art should become science and all science art; poetry and philosophy should be made one." Friedrich Schlegel`s words perfectly capture the project of the German Romantics, who believed that the aesthetic approaches of art and literature could reveal patterns and meaning in nature that couldn`t be uncovered through rationalistic philosophy and science alone. In this wide-ranging work, Robert J. Richards shows how the Romantic conception of the world influenced (and was influenced by) both the lives of the people who held it and the development of nineteenth-century science. Integrating Romantic literature, science, and philosophy with an intimate knowledge of the individuals involved—from Goethe and the brothers Schlegel to Humboldt and Friedrich and Caroline Schelling—Richards demonstrates how their tempestuous lives shaped their ideas as profoundly as their intellectual and cultural heritage. He focuses especially on how Romantic concepts of the self, as well as aesthetic and moral considerations—all tempered by personal relationships—altered scientific representations of nature. Although historians have long considered Romanticism at best a minor tributary to scientific thought, Richards moves it to the center of the main currents of nineteenth-century biology, culminating in the conception of nature that underlies Darwin`s evolutionary theory. Uniting the personal and poetic aspects of philosophy and science in a way that the German Romantics themselves would have honored, The Romantic Conception of Life alters how we look at Romanticism and nineteenth-century biology.

Please help! Had a vaginal ultrasound today and they detected yolk sac but no fetal pole....?

the sonographer said that what she was seeing on the screen was similar to a woman who is only around 5 weeks pregnant but i KNOW my period was longer ago than this. I worked it out to be at LEAST 6 weeks by now. If not 6.5 weeks. I have another ultrasound in 12 days but the wait is going to kill me. Im so scared and upset that this pregnancy could not be viable, so far the only thing they have managed to rule out is that its not an ectopic pregnancy.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks
Oh and I should add that my HCG levels rose over a 48 hour period by almost 66% (the recommended level) but not quite....
the thing thats concerning is that my HCG levels were over 3000 on my last blood test and usually over 2000 there should be a fetal pole on the ultrasound....

That is exactly what happened to me -- I went in at what I thought was six weeks to rule out an ectopic pregnancy, they saw a yolk sack but no fetal pole. The Dr. said it was either non viable or I had actually ovulated a week later than expected. That option made sense, since I usually have a 35 day cycle. Sure enough, my Hcg levels were doubling and when I went in for an ultrasound a week later, the baby was showing. I am now 22 weeks, and my baby has measured that far along consistently. According to my last period, I should be 23. Some women don't ovulate exactly 14 days after the start of their last period. Try not to freak out, it is very possible that everything is fine! I know exactly how you feel, though, it was a long week to wait. Good luck!

First pregnancy. Did you have your baby BEFORE or AFTER your due date?

I am due February 28th (first baby), and I was just wondering if you had your baby earlier or later than your due date. I keep hearing that if it's your first baby many moms go past their due dates, yet I also have friends that have had them 3 weeks early.
I know it really depends on each person, but I wanted to see what you guys say.

Thanks!!!!

My first child came a week before the Due Date.
With my second child I hope she arrives right on time or maybe a few days late. Just because there are so many people I know with March Birthday's that I don't want her to come on any of those days.

It will also help you be the best father you can be by covering such topics as: • The tests and procedures your partner may undergo • The impact of pregnancy on your relationship and how to handle it • Ways to evaluate the expenses of having a baby • How to be a great labor coach

Can I be pregnant with bleeding and a negative test?

I am 32 and have 2 children. This month, a week before my period was due, my breasts became very tender. After a few days I got montgomery's bumps on my breasts and started to have nausea and cramping. After a week I started having a metallic taste in my mouth and have been very fatigued. Compared to my previous pregnancies, this has felt very similar. In fact, I would swear I was pregnant. Yesterday, 4 days late, my period began. However, my period was very light with dark brown blood. It had stopped by this morning and then started again later in the day, a little heavier now. Normally my periods are very heavy from the very beginning and never stop. My breasts are still very tender and I am still nauseated. I am still bleeding. As all of my tests have come back negative, is it possible that I'm pregnant? Or am I just having a weird late period?

No, I don't think you're pregnant even though you are having all those pregnancy like symptoms. I had the same thing last month and I would have put money on that I was pregnant, but 2 days late my periods came. You may have been pregnant briefly and the egg didn't stick but it sounds like a weird period. Good Luck

Symptoms of Withdrawal


Symptoms of Withdrawal


$24.05


In this graceful memoir, the now-grown son of actor Peter Lawford and Pat Kennedy Lawford looks back on his life with sober eyes, recalling his childhood experiences among the rich and famous and his own long battle with alcohol and drugs. Christopher Kennedy Lawford shares anecdotes about his wonder years growing up in a Kennedy family circle headed by Uncles Jack and Bobby--a time of Camelot that was soon to be forever changed by the tragic events that made people talk of a "Kennedy curse." Lawford writes eloquently about the effect of the two assassinations on the family, and the sadness, fear, and depression that affected many of its members for years afterwards. The young Chris also traveled in the showbiz world of his Rat Pack father, and he relates many stories about the likes of Frank Sinatra and Marilyn Monroe. Lawford does not gloss over the very dark side of his life and his struggle to find his own place among the famous clan. But he also notes that his recovery from addiction has changed his outlook, providing him with the sense of balance and perspective that makes SYMPTOMS OF WITHDRAWAL a memoir of experience, strength, and hope.
