Fewer refills of the Pill, fewer pregnancies - Health - Pregnancy - msnbc.com

Letting women have a year's supply of birth control pills might help prevent more unwanted pregnancies, a new study suggests.

Right now, private and public insurance plans in the U.S. generally limit how many months' worth of birth control pills can be prescribed at once.

But researchers found that lower-income California women who got a year's supply of the Pill had fewer unplanned pregnancies than women who got only enough packages for one or three months at a time.

For every 1,000 women who participated in the study, 10 in the longer-supply group became pregnant within a year, compared to 30 of those who could only get prescriptions for shorter supplies.

New babies and heart attacks don't stop in a blizzard - themorningsun.com

Snowstorms don’t stop babies from being born, people from being hospitalized, and they don’t stop heart attacks.
That means that the maternity staff, hospital physicians, cardiologists and other doctors and nurses at MidMichigan Medical Center-Midland needed to plow through snow drifts or even put on skis to get to work.
Dr. Otto Leiti, an internal medicine special with MidMichigan Physicians Group, needed to get to the medical center in Midland to see his patients who were hospitalized, so he strapped on his skis and made a 40-minute ski trip to get in.
“It was fun. I had to be careful with cars, but cross country skis were designed for survival,” Leiti said. “I should do this every day.”
When maternity manager and registered nurse Tonia Van Wieren learned that the storm was coming, she decided that it would be better just to sleep over in the medical center. And when some staff could not get out to come to work, starting at 3 a.m., VanWieren was there to fill in with newly scheduled staff.
“There have been four babies delivered in the snowstorm, and eight (mothers) were in labor yesterday,” she said. “The medical center’s obstetric unit is full and overflowing on to another floor. We’re making it work.”
For some, even a snow day could not postpone the inevitable. Dr. Richard Bartling, an ral and maxillofacial surgeon who is on the Medical Center’s medical staff, was performing oral surgery at his practice in Mt. Pleasant as usual. No surgeries were cancelled and Bartling extracted teeth as usual.
