Taking Care of You: Your Post-Pregnancy Health

The long-term health of both mother and child are connected to the mother's understanding of a healthy pregnancy. This is the inspiration behind our Pregnancy and Parenting Health Center. We want to provide women with the most up-to-date, trusted health information, such as an article on pregnancy nutrition dos and don'ts and an expert Q&A on preeclampsia with Eleni Tsigas, executive director of the Preeclampsia Foundation. Our goal is to provide women with the information they need to speak with their health care providers and take the necessary steps to ensure that whatever conditions arise during pregnancy don't translate into future health complications.

In fact, we're taking this commitment to Twitter. We'll be cohosting a Twitter chat with the Preeclampsia Foundation on May 24 at noon (ET). You can follow us at @HealthyWomen and @Preeclampsia. The focus of our chat is "heart health for moms." We created a new hashtag (#HH4M) so you can easily follow the conversation.

I hope you'll join us on May 24. And, as always, we're here to help you locate medical experts, resources or trusted medical content, so feel free to contact us for additional support.

In good health,
Elizabeth Battaglino
