When a pregnancy test is positive but an ultrasound scan cannot find a baby in the uterus, doctors call this Pregnancy of Unknown Location (PUL). This means the pregnancy hormone is present, but the pregnancy cannot yet be seen on the scan.

There are several possible reasons:

1. Very Early Pregnancy

Sometimes the pregnancy is too early to be seen on ultrasound.
• A pregnancy usually becomes visible on scan around 5–6 weeks.
• If the scan is done earlier, nothing may be seen yet.

Doctors will usually:
• Repeat the blood pregnancy hormone (hCG) test.
• Repeat the scan after 1–2 weeks.

2. Ectopic Pregnancy

This happens when the pregnancy is growing outside the uterus, usually in the fallopian tube.
Signs may include:
• Lower abdominal pain
• Vaginal bleeding
• Shoulder pain
• Dizziness

This condition can be dangerous and needs urgent medical care.

3. Very Early Miscarriage

Sometimes a pregnancy test becomes positive but the pregnancy stops developing very early. The body may pass the pregnancy before it is seen on a scan. This is sometimes called a chemical pregnancy.

4. Incorrect Pregnancy Dates

If ovulation happened later than expected, the pregnancy may simply be younger than calculated, so the baby is not visible yet.

Important Advice

If a pregnancy test is positive but no pregnancy is seen on scan:
• Doctors will monitor pregnancy hormone levels (hCG).
• They will repeat the ultrasound after a few days or a week.
• Watch for pain or bleeding and seek care immediately if it occurs.

⸻

💡 Simple explanation for mothers:
A positive pregnancy test means pregnancy hormones are present, but the pregnancy may be too small to see, may be outside the uterus, or may have stopped developing.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND SOFT BABY SKIN. “VERNIX CASEOSA”

You see that whitish substance on your baby's after it's born? What did you make out of it?
Some even think it's dirt or as a result of eating ayilo/while/Pica. But this is not the case. This is what you should know.
When your baby is born, he might be covered with a thick, white, cheese-like layer called vernix caseosa. The older the baby is, the less you find it on their skin. It begins to form around 25 weeks and dissolves into the amniotic fluid with time.

It's benefits

In the womb, vernix helps protect your newborn’s delicate skin from the acidic quality of the amniotic fluid

It hydrates her skin, insulates her body, and maintains a proper—and comfortable—temperature in utero.

Vernix also doubles as a lubricant, helping your baby slide out of the birth canal a bit easier.

It gives that new born smell your baby has, it helps mum and baby to bond

The World Health Organization advises delaying a baby's first bath for at least 6 hours, although 24 hours is ideal. This will help baby to adjust to the new environment and the vernix plays a role as well

Wash off right away if Baby has meconium staining, or if the mother has HIV or hepatitis.

Do not force it to be removed all at a time. With time all will be removed.

🍓 Strawberries During Pregnancy – A Sweet Boost for You and Your Baby

Strawberries are not only delicious—they are packed with nutrients that support a healthy pregnancy.

One of the key nutrients in strawberries is vitamin C. Vitamin C plays an important role in helping your body absorb iron from foods, which helps prevent anemia during pregnancy. Adequate iron supports the production of healthy red blood cells that carry oxygen to both mother and baby.

Strawberries are also a good source of folate, an essential nutrient during pregnancy. Folate helps support the development of your baby’s brain and spinal cord, especially in the early weeks of pregnancy.

Another benefit of strawberries is their high antioxidant content. Antioxidants help protect your body’s cells from damage and support a healthy immune system during pregnancy.

Strawberries also contain fiber, which helps improve digestion and may help reduce constipation, a common discomfort many women experience during pregnancy.

🍓 Healthy ways to enjoy strawberries during pregnancy:
• Add them to your breakfast oatmeal or cereal
• Blend them into a fresh smoothie
• Mix them into yogurt
• Enjoy them fresh as a healthy snack

Including nutrient-rich fruits like strawberries in your diet can help support your health and your baby’s growth during pregnancy.

A healthy pregnancy starts with nourishing your body.

🥑 Avocado During Pregnancy – A Powerful Superfood

Avocado is one of the healthiest fruits you can include in your diet during pregnancy. It is rich in folate, an essential nutrient that helps support your baby’s brain and spinal cord development.

Avocados are also packed with healthy fats, which help support your baby’s growth and development. These healthy fats are important for the development of your baby’s brain and nervous system.

In addition, avocados contain potassium, which may help reduce leg cramps that many women experience during pregnancy.

They also provide fiber, which helps prevent constipation, a common discomfort during pregnancy.

🥑 Simple ways to enjoy avocado during pregnancy:
• Add slices to your salad
• Spread it on whole-grain toast
• Blend it into a healthy smoothie
• Eat it fresh with your meals

A balanced diet during pregnancy helps support both mother and baby. Including nutritious foods like avocado can be a simple and delicious way to nourish your body.

Healthy mother, healthy baby. 💚

12 midnight… before I sleep. To young nurses and midwives. Taking extra jobs and hours to solve short term goals is good.

But remember burnout in nursing is real. As a person who stepped into nursing school at 18 and now 39. Your energy may go down. Your interest may change.

Make time to create a business, build a brand or get skills that will take you higher

When you are 40, you will appreciate that you built something for yourself . Have a good night 🩷🩷🩷
