Did you know that the size of the placenta could be a key factor in preventing stillbirth? And yet, most expecting parents are never told about it. In this powerful episode, I sit down with Amanda Feltman, a loss mom and advocate from Measure the Placenta, to talk about how a simple ultrasound measurement—Estimated Placental Volume (EPV)—could help save lives.📌 What you'll learn in this episode:✅ The critical role the placenta plays in pregnancy and fetal health✅ How small placentas can increase the risk of stillbirth and poor outcomes✅ Why EPV isn’t standard practice in prenatal care (and why it should be!)✅ Amanda’s personal story of losing her daughter, Juniper, and how it led her to advocacy✅ What parents can do to advocate for better monitoring of placental health💔 Stillbirth is a silent crisis, but it doesn’t have to be. Awareness and action can make a difference.Hey, if you're more of a visual person, this episode is up on my YouTube Channel!
