Many Indian and global Organisations have made significant strides in addressing the increasing gaps in maternal health . However, it's disheartening to note that 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝟏/𝟑 of the UN sustainaibility MCH goals have been achieved.

To address this colossal issue, there is need to identify the gaps & root cause of those problems rather than just glorifying statistics of reproductive health indicators. There is huge need of purpose driven health professiinals who are passionate about maternal and child health. These professionals genuinely care for the cause and come up with innovative ideas to solve bigger problems.

𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐬 genuinely aspire to create a substantial impact through educating people about pregnancy, they often struggle to establish careers in maternal health.

What holds them back is the lack of proper guidance 📝. Senior professionals are frequently unable to provide them with the invaluable information they seek.

This is where the 𝐌𝐇𝐂𝐂 (𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲) comes into play. Our mission revolves around offering comprehensive guidance to every health professional 🧑‍⚕️who wishes to bring about transformation in global maternal & child health.

If you're someone who hungers to make a meaningful contribution to this noble cause, if you aspire to be the guiding light for expectant parents, then 𝐥𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐌 📩

𝐈𝐬 𝐅𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 & 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 ??

Recently, while conducting lactation training & management program for MCH doctors, Nurses & Asha Workers, this question again came..

This is one of the most common questions I receive from expectant mothers & it's entirely valid. Every decision you make during pregnancy can significantly impact your health and the health of your child
During pregnancy, the well-being of both the mother and the developing baby is of paramount importance 💯. While fasting may be a personal or cultural choice, it's crucial to understand its potential effects on you and your baby. Here's why fasting is not recommended during this time:

⿡ 𝐍𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐲: Your growing baby relies entirely on you for essential nutrients. Fasting can limit the intake of vital vitamins and minerals necessary for your baby's development.

⿢ 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫 𝐋𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬: Fasting can result in unstable blood sugar levels, which can be risky during pregnancy. Maintaining steady blood sugar levels is crucial for the well-being of both you and your baby.

⿣ 𝐃𝐞𝐡𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Pregnant women are more susceptible to dehydration, and fasting can increase this risk. Dehydration can lead to complications that may affect your baby's health.

It's important to consult with a 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 🩺or a maternal health coach to ensure you're making the right choices during pregnancy.

Remember, 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐚𝐛𝐲'𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞. Let's prioritize the well-being of both you and your baby ✨✨

"Doctor Didi" & Story of 5 kg Sweet Box : Year 2014

My 10 years of government service & 9 years of medical education, I have treated & cared for people from different nationalities and different religions. Some stories stays with you..forever

I was posted full time in Rajmata Jijau Maternal & Child health hospital ( RJMCH), NMMC hospital Airoli. But for one week I was deputed to Digha UHP( Urban Health Project) OPD as the In-charge medical officer was on leave.

After finishing routine general OPD of close to 200 patients, we, Me & Dr. Jaya were about to start our lunch. All of a sudden, one Man in his mid 40s came inside OPD and handed over 5 kg sweet box to me with big satisfying smile. Having no clue, I asked, thank you but "Why" these sweets ??

It's been 10 years to that incidence but I still remember what he replied !!
"Doctor Aapa, For 10 hours I was lying on my bed with discomfort, pain & fever. I earn close to 10,000 to 20,000 per day through my business. I came to your OPD, and because of your treatment, I am standing on my two feet and went back to work immediately !!

Of course, I enjoyed a bite of that sweet and had a little celebration by distributing those sweets to our entire staff. I don't have pictures though as it wasn't in trend that time 🫣
But Dr. Jaya and me clicked one on the day my deputation was over.

What I did is my routine clinical protocol of managing OPD, 100% listening to patient's complaints, history, asking right questions & history taking and clinical management.
What stays with us is their smile and how we made them feel.

Be more, Smile More and Serve More !!
Let's Unite and Stand Together With Our Nation For Better Future ✨️

This request is aimed to avoid mishaps for pregnant moms, new moms and infants while travelling in local trains ...

The efforts taken by your esteemed ministry in allowing pregnant women to travel in the handicapped compartment are truly appreciated but it is not always possible to board a particular compartment during rush hours, be it early stage or advanced stage of pregnancy.

We, birth professionals and coaches of Maternal Health Coach Community would like to propose these suggestions to esteemed ministry

⏩Reserve 4 seats per general compartment and 2 seats per first class compartment for pregnant moms (1st to 9 month), lactating moms, and new moms with kids (0-5 years)

Restricting reserved seats just to advanced stage of pregnancy doesn't solve entire purpose of supporting and valuing mothers

Yesterday, I chose train to travel back after successful meeting at NMMC head office. I love travelling by local trains especially Harbour Line. It brings back memories of my work at different NMMC hospitals.

During my second pregnancy, I preferred local train to travel from Thane to Airoli as traveling by car was not comfortable for me. After lots of trials and error, local train was the safest option
No bumpy ride and there is space to move around ( during less rush hours )

I invite you to share your experiences and your suggestions as well to make these new moms journey more comfortable

Let us together Create Strong Foundation For Mothers health and The future she is carrying !!

Doctor's burnout is not a personal failure, but a systemic problem that requires collective action and responsibility.

⏩Doctors & Healthcare professionals burnout is a serious issue that affects the well-being and performance of doctors, nurses, and other staff in the healthcare sector.
⏩ It is caused by prolonged exposure to occupational stressors, such as excessive workloads, administrative burdens, lack of control, and emotional demands.
⏩Burnout can lead to negative outcomes for both healthcare workers and patients, such as reduced quality of care, medical errors, low patient satisfaction and increased absenteeism at workplace

↗Some possible 𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐭 among healthcare professionals are:
⏩Implementing organizational changes that address the root causes of burnout, such as improving work processes, enhancing teamwork, providing feedback, and fostering a culture of support and respect
⏩ Providing individual interventions that help healthcare workers cope with stress, such as mindfulness, resilience training, counseling, and self-care
⏩Promoting a healthy work-life balance that allows healthcare workers to have adequate rest, recreation, and social support
⏩By taking care of the people who take care of us, we can improve the health and safety of everyone. 🙌
