@reproductionsrb.bsky.social @anzpra1.bsky.social A beautiful talk this morning from @kirsty-pringle.bsky.social on the importance of consumers in research - not just involving them but having them lead the research direction 🤰

📢 New research!
We analysed 20+ years of pregnancy & birth data in 🇦🇺🇺🇸🇬🇧
👩‍🍼 Mothers are older
📈 C-section & diabetes rates rising
⚖️ Inequities persist for Indigenous & minority women
Time for equity-driven maternity care 💡
