So far it has shown improved outcomes and better care satisfaction. However, uptake varies, particularly among populations in vulnerable conditions. If upscaling of the gANC model is to be undertaken, more knowledge is needed on implementation challenges. The aim of this study was to investigate implementation of gANC amongst midwifery practices. Results show that gANC is available to women, but not all. Scaleup of the model is needed to allow all pregnant women and people to access gANC.","PeriodicalId":517977,"journal":{"name":"The Practising Midwife","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141715938","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}

We included 25 papers, from five countries, published between 2001 and 2022. Women and clinicians generally felt trauma discussions were valuable provided there was adequate time and resources. Women were more likely to disclose trauma when they had a trusting relationship with the clinician, but some women chose not to share their histories regardless. Hearing trauma disclosures could be emotionally difficult for clinicians. National guidelines are needed to help midwives navigate discussions with pregnant women about past traumas.","PeriodicalId":517977,"journal":{"name":"The Practising Midwife","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141039754","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}

Parents often report that the days following identification of their baby’s death passed in a blur. Later they think about things they might have chosen to do if they had the opportunity. This is an experience common with sudden bereavements.1 The following are a few issues to consider. Because the death of a baby before birth is such an unfamiliar event in our society, most parents will not know what to ask. They are likely to appreciate guidance about the choices and options are available to them.
