NEW EPISODE OUT!!! 🎧
Tune in for another episode of our “pregnancy stories” series! In this episode, our guest Mareike is sharing her experience being pregnant in Finland. Mareike suffered from preeclampsia, aka pregnancy poisoning, in both of her pregnancies. She talks about the condition itself, how she was cared for and offers some tips to women on dealing with it.
Preeclampsia is a condition, which is still not fully understood. It can’t be prevented nor treated as such. The symptoms include high blood pressure, protein in the urine, pain in the upper stomach, water in the extremities, headache and nausea to name a few.
Ultimately it might lead to kidney failure, water in the lungs and other serious issues for the mom.
The condition also bears risks for the baby, since it may prevent the baby from getting everything it needs to grow.

NEW EPISODE OUT!!
The postpartum period begins right after childbirth. It is commonly defined as the six weeks after the delivery but can last longer. During this time, a woman goes through various physical and emotional changes, while recovering from labor and adjusting to a new family life with a baby.
A bit of planning can help with your recovery process, letting you thrive with a newborn. Being prepared will help you have a support network to lean on, reduce stress and frustration, and give you more time to rest.
In this week’s episode, we talk about how Finland supports women in their postpartum journey and what each of us can do to make our experience better.
On a scale from 1-5, how well does Finland support women in their postpartum recovery in your opinion?
What services do you think are vital?
