Saint Barnabas Medical Center Offers Expecting and New Parents an Informative Electronic Newsletter Service Livingston, NJ -- Expectant parents are faced with a bewildering range of pregnancy and parenting information – books, magazines, television, and the well-meaning advice of friends and family. It is difficult to know how to sort it all out. Obstetrical patients at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston are offered an electronic newsletter to guide them through their pregnancy and the first year of their baby’s life: The Parent Review. This free weekly service offers expectant and new parents customized information, news and resources from the parent education staff. Unlike any other weekly e-mail, this message is based on the newest evidence-based practices and the obstetrical team’s years of experience supporting families through pregnancy. Patients can start receiving weekly Parent Review e-mail messages at 20-weeeks gestation. Messages are personalized to the patient’s due date and continue for the first year of their baby’s life. During pregnancy, messages include week-by-week information on fetal development, wellness tips, and valuable resources. After the baby is born, messages offer child development information, practical tips on baby care, health and safety, and other topics of special interest to new parents. To sign up, visit www.sbmcobnews.com and select Parenting E-Newsletter. For further questions, please call the Saint Barnabas Women’s Health Department at (973) 322-5360.
