ACOG Issues Guidelines for Stillbirth Management

Beyond child abuse - more feticide by fatsos.
"Diabetes before pregnancy increases the risk for stillbirth 2- to 5-fold. In obese pregnant women with a body mass index between 30 and 39.9 kg/m2, the rate of stillbirth is 8 per 1000 births, and this increases to 11 per 1000 in pregnant women with a body mass index greater than 40 kg/m2. Even after adjustment for smoking, gestational diabetes, and preeclampsia, obesity remains an independent risk factor for stillbirth."
Kudos, fatsos.
