Season 5 Ep 4: The (Weak) Ties Between Intended or Unwanted Pregnancies and Maternal-Infant Health

In this episode, we go ‘back to the beginning,’ with a focus on where we all begin and NEW science on pregnancy intention. New research led by Dr. Erica Hobby at NYU, recently published in the journal Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health, explores whether pregnancy intension – a pregnancy that is intended and wanted versus unintended or earlier than planned – has short- or long-term impacts on the health of moms and babies born in Oklahoma, Missouri, and Alaska. With important take-aways for how important it is to support women and families at this crucial stage of life, we hope you’ll take this science deep dive with us, and let us know what you think!
