The rates vary across countries, ethnicities, and diagnostic thresholds. In the UK alone, GDM affects approximately 35,000 pregnancies annually, reflecting an escalating trend. Elevated blood glucose levels in pregnancy exhibit a linear correlation with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, contributing to complications such as large for gestational age babies, increased caesarean section rates, shoulder dystocia, neonatal hypoglycaemia, intensive care admissions, and stillbirth. While any woman can develop GDM, well-established risk factors include a body mass index (BMI) above 30, maternal age over 40, previous GDM instances, a history of delivering babies weighing over 4.5kg, and specific ethnic backgrounds. This commentary discusses the Cochrane umbrella review by Griffith et al. (2020), which evaluates the effectiveness of various lifestyle-focused interventions commonly employed for GDM prevention. Given the multitude of risk factors, early interventions before or during pregnancy hold promise in mitigating the likelihood of GDM development.</p>","PeriodicalId":35678,"journal":{"name":"Practising Midwife","volume":"27 5","pages":"24-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7616812/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142648901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence suggests that the most common causes of female infertility are ovulation disorders (e.g., polycystic ovary syndrome). That said, lifestyle factors such as dietary patterns, stress, alcohol consumption, smoking, and obesity are key determinants which have been shown to impact female physiology and significantly decrease the chances of conception. Obesity has been widely recognized as a significant factor that negatively impacts ovarian stimulation in women and is associated with several reproductive disorders, including anovulation, subfertility, and infertility. Despite improvements in fertility treatments, obesity remains a challenge particularly for fertility clinics because of the poorer pregnancy outcomes observed within the population.

However, neither women nor their midwives are informed that PAPP-A results will be looked at independently, or that recommendations of care will be based on these results, and neither is consent gained for this. In addition, the question arises of why screening for low PAPP-A is not offered to all women (regardless of their decision to have screening for chromosomal abnormalities) given its potentially serious implications.","PeriodicalId":35678,"journal":{"name":"Practising Midwife","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135810121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to maintain breastfeeding, healthcare professionals must ensure their knowledge is up-to-date and in line with the requirements of the feeding family to support their long-term feeding goals. All too often, breast/chestfeeding is adequately established, yet maintaining breastfeeding becomes difficult due to inadequate support in the postnatal period, open to misinformation due to limited knowledge and training, the well meant but misinformed advice from the wider family network and lack of access to good quality accessible services. It is well documented that postnatal care is referred to as the ‘poor relation’ of ongoing maternity care and feeding support can rapidly drop off during this time. Here we review physiology, best practice and troubleshoot common problems in maintaining feeding.
