help us streamline acupuncture research for pregnancy

Calling anyone who has been/is/will be pregnant or does research in this area and who is interested in acupuncture treatments!

The research on acupuncture effectiveness in pregnancy still needs further refinement. It's difficult to compare different studies when they are focused on different topics.

Our goal is to streamline acupuncture research so we can get more meaningful results. This way we can properly quantify how useful acupuncture/TCM really is for helping relieve discomfort in pregnancy.

Our study, run in collaboration with professors from University of Notre Dame, Harvard University, Pace University NY, University of Utah, Bastyr University, and University of Texas, is ethics approved and we are currently looking for participants to answer our survey about what outcomes matter most for acupuncture research.

 ~https://notredame.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_esuB6WKZuwPwCz4~

Participation is voluntary and results will be published in a study about acupuncture outcomes for women’s health. Please share with your friends + family who are involved. Thanks in advance <333

Seeking couples expecting their first baby for an online program! [mod approved]

🔍 We are seeking couples from Canada, the US, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK who are up to 22 weeks pregnant to participate in the STORK pilot study: Supporting the Transition to parenthood through Online Sex and Relationship Knowledge.

❓What is STORK: The first online couple-based program designed to enhance knowledge about changes to sexuality during pregnancy and postpartum and skills to cope with these changes. STORK was designed to strengthen couples’ relationships across the transition to parenthood.

📅 What is involved: You and your partner will complete 5 online modules in pregnancy (1 per week) and a final module at 2 months postpartum. You will also complete 2
surveys — before and after you have completed the program — that gather information about your relationship, your pregnancy experience, your feedback on the STORK program, and your child.

💰 Compensation: As a thank you for your participation, you can receive $33 CAD or currency equivalent each ($66 CAD or currency equivalent per couple). Your time is valuable to us!

🌈 Inclusivity matters: STORK requires one member of the couple to be currently pregnant. Otherwise, STORK is open to individuals of all genders, bodies, and sexual orientations.

Couples who have had previous pregnancies but do not live with a child can participate if they otherwise meet eligibility criteria.

💌 For more information or to participate in the STORK pilot study, contact us at STORK@dal.ca. or complete our screening survey!: https://qualtrics.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0MPyLcurzaMwy3k

Is this sub dead?

Hi, everyone, new here.

It looks like there haven't been daily thread posts in over six months. What gives?

If this sub is dead, is there another one to go to if you're 30+ and preggers?

Are you currently, or were you previously, pregnant? Exercise in pregnancy PhD project (Mod approved)

Do you have experience with continuing to exercise while pregnant? How did you feel about the guidance and advice that you received? Did you face uncertainty about how, or if, you should modify your exercise routine?

Researchers at Australian Catholic University are aiming to improve the information we have available about exercise in pregnancy. My PhD, specifically, is looking at how active people train while pregnant.

If you are currently, or were previously, pregnant you could help with the studies. It doesn't matter where in the world you are located, or how long ago your previous pregnancy was.

What's involved? You will be asked to share exercise data recorded during your current or previous pregnancy and complete surveys about your health and exercise. If you are currently pregnant and live near Brisbane (Australia), you can opt in to additional measures to understand how your body and baby respond to exercise in each trimester of pregnancy. The de-identified results of the studies will be published in high-quality scientific journals.

Please feel free to share the information on the studies below with anyone you know who might be interested in participating!

Currently pregnant (less than 26 weeks' pregnant): https://redcap.link/ACUPregExSt2

Previously pregnant (no limit on how long ago): https://redcap.link/ACUPregExS1
