 Happy 15th Anniversary to the Haskins Practice! This special patient comes in every single year to celebrate with Gerber Daisies and sweet treats. She was the first patient in the door 7/1/08 and remarkably delivered on 8/8/08 and also on 11/11/11! I have the best patients!! Thank you everyone for your support over the years.  Happy 1st day of May and in many countries a vacation day in the celebration of the coming of spring.
On that note is it time to mentally assess how well you are looking after yourself? Do you exercise, how is your sleep, do you drink lots of water throughout the day, how are your eating habits, do you enjoy leisure time and have ways of relieving stress? Know your risk factors and be proactive with your health. We specialize in providing Obstetrical and Gynecologic care to women of all ages. The practice focuses on preventing illness through maintaining optimal health and healthy lifestyles through education, information and involvement.  You may not realize you are pregnant until well into your first trimester. During this period your body is dealing with many hormonal changes. Fatigue Nausea Vomiting Mood swings Tender and/or swollen breasts Heartburn Headaches Weight gain or loss Need to urinate more often One, all or none of these symptoms may be experienced and if this is not your first pregnancy, the symptoms may be completely different! Nausea is the most common issue during the first trimester which can be helped by eating small, low fat meals and drinking plenty of water.  Since 1987 the month of March is designated to commemorate Women's History Month, which is in celebration of the vital roles women have played in American history! So to celbrate I thought I would post a number of sites that list but a few major achievements for which Women are credited. Enjoy and hopefully this will give everyone additional inspiration to continue to break those ridiculous glass ceilings, that are unfortunately still societally present!
