"It was not long ago that unmarried pregnant women in the United States hid in maternity homes and relinquished their "illegitimate" children to "more deserving" two-parent families-all in the name of keeping secret shameful pregnancies. Although times and practices have changed, reproductive politics remain a fraught topic and site of injustice, especially for poor women and women of color. Enduring Shame explores two volatile decades in American history-the 1960s and '70s-to trace how shame remained a dynamic and animating emotion in increasingly public interventions into unwed and teen pregnancy.Heather Brook Adams makes a case for recasting this era not as a time of gaining reproductive rights for all but rather as a moment when communicative practices of shame and blame cultivated new forms of injustice. Drawing from personal interviews, archival documents, legal decisions, public policy, journalism, memoirs, and advocacy writing, Adams articulates the rhetorical power of shame to explain how the American public was persuaded to think about reproduction, sexual righteousness, and unwed pregnancy during a time of presumed progress"-- "It was not long ago that unmarried pregnant women in the US hid in maternity homes and relinquished their "illegitimate" child to a more "deserving" two-parent family-all in the name of keeping secret a shameful pregnancy. While times and practices have changed, reproductive politics remains a fraught topic and site of injustice, lingering sexual shame contributing to racialized and class-based public division. Enduring Shame explores two volatile decades in US history-the 1960s and the 1970s-to trace how shame remained a dynamic and animating emotion in increasingly public ways of addressing "unwed" and "teen" pregnancy. Heather Brook Adams makes a case for recasting this era not as a time of gaining reproductive rights for all, but rather as a moment when communicative practices of shame and blame cultivated new forms of injustice. Drawing from personal interviews, archival documents, legal decisions, public policy, journalism, memoirs, and advocacy writing, Adams articulates the rhetorical power of shame to explain how the American public was persuaded to think about reproduction, sexual righteousness, and unwed pregnancy during a time of codified "progress." Despite the aspirational goals of reproductive liberation, public sentiment frequently upheld supremacist notions of whiteness that were based on ideas of racial, economic, and moral fitness-even as these sentiments informed new public policy. By centering evidence of shame as a communicated or threatening force, the book maps a range of experiences across these decades from women's experiences of hiding and "revirginalization" in homes for unwed mothers to policy and legal changes that are typically understood as proof of shame's dissipation. Adams explores evidence related to Title IX legislation, Roe v. Wade, and the unrelenting Hyde Amendment that has long restricted reproductive autonomy for poor (often non-white) women, and Congressional interventions of the late 1970s meant to curb an "epidemic" of "babies having babies." Rhetorical historiography and questions of reproductive justice guide the analysis and women's own voices provide essential perspectives and context for this recent history. This book recovers a misunderstood part of women's recent history by considering why reproductive politics remain so volatile given women's previous gains in this area and why shame continues to figure so centrally and powerfully in public discourse about limitations on women's reproductive and sexual freedoms"--

Bleeding during pregnancy is not a rare phenomenon and has been associated with significant maternal and fetal morbidities and even mortality.  Although vaginal bleeding occurs mainly during the first trimester, it can appear at any stage of pregnancy and during the post-partum period.  This sometimes life-threatening event requires an extensive work-up in order to recognize its cause and establish a rapid and effective therapeutic approach. Bleeding During Pregnancy: A Comprehensive Guide draws on evidence-based data and brings together updated information on all aspects of pregnancy-related bleeding.  Chapters were contributed by a multidisciplinary team of international experts, including obstetricians, gynecologists, anesthesiologists, hematologists, oncologists and epidemiologists.  Topics covered include: bleeding during early pregnancy (early pregnancy loss, ectopic pregnancy, gestational trophoblastic disease, and cancer of the reproductive tract during pregnancy; bleeding in late pregnancy (preterm delivery, placental abruption, placenta previa, vasa previa and uterine rupture); and post partum-hemorrhage.  Intensive care of a patient with excessive bleeding and coagulotherapy during pregnancy or the post-partum period are also discussed.  This book is an essential guide for a broad spectrum of clinicians and health care professionals who treat pregnant patients.
