http://northstarbirth.blogspot.com/2010/04/retired-military-leaders-and-public.html
Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Retired military leaders and public health officials have something in common. News today from Mission: Readiness. 75% of American youth are too out of shape [read: obese] to serve in the military. From their press release:. I agree. Our nation needs soldiers fit to defend our borders and our interests. We also need a healthy enough population that we will be able to compete in the global marketplace, create art, serve on juries, and raise families. Prepared foods need to be heal...

North Star Birth Pregnancy & Birth Services: January 2010
http://northstarbirth.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. 1st of 3 - Support. By way of an introduction I want to elaborate on my tag line - "Support, Education, Advocacy". Having a marketing professional for a spouse, I appreciate the importance of a concise, memorable tag line and I think there is a lot you can learn about me and the work that I do from those 3 words. Today, we’ll tackle the first word – Support. On the surface, support. And maybe now, after over a decade of practice, it is an instinctive and natural role that I play.

http://northstarbirth.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 4, 2010. Maternal death and public health. A news story came out yesterday that inspired me to vary from my original plan of introductory blog posts. It is just too important and interesting to pass up. Plus, as a new blog, I want to give you a picture of what kind of posts you are going to see here. I’m not so interested in celebrity pregnancies. Though I am pleased when they say positive things about birth. I am very interested in. Than other population groups, with California number...

North Star Birth Pregnancy & Birth Services: And the winner is...ME!
http://northstarbirth.blogspot.com/2013/03/and-winner-isme_21.html
Thursday, March 21, 2013. And the winner is.ME! 3 years ago in June I had what seemed at the time to be a completely crazy idea. The process of preparing for medical school has been nearly as transformational as I imagine the actual experience will be. I cycled through many different life plans and ideas of what the next phase of my life would look like, I met new friends, learned a lot and had some pretty great adventures. But make plans and the Gods laugh, right? Do I just want to be right? All of this...

North Star Birth Pregnancy & Birth Services: Internal Consistency
http://northstarbirth.blogspot.com/2010/04/internal-consistency.html
Tuesday, April 27, 2010. Today I was had a wide-ranging and interesting conversation with a woman who runs a local emerging non-profit organization. Though the conversation was organizational development-this. I realized that my explanations of how I could help the board grow the organization sounded a lot like my conversations with expectant couples and how I can help them be strong advocates and educated consumers of health care. I don't advocate for. I realized today, happily, that though my work as a...

http://northstarbirth.blogspot.com/2010/07/new-vbac-recommendations-from-acog.html
Thursday, July 22, 2010. New VBAC recommendations from ACOG. In July 2004 the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists issued practice bulletin #54 - which changed the status quo for treatment of women with a history of prior cesarean. The big change was that ACOG recommended that women attempting a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) should labor with a "physician immediately. Available throughout active labor capable of monitoring labor and performing an emergency cesarean delivery.". But it...
