To all pregnant people and those supporting them - please speak to a midwife/doctor about any concerns with your baby’s movements. It’s likely nothing, and baby will be checked and you will be reassured. But rarely, it is something really important, and they can help you

Seriously now. I am a clinician scientist working in reproductive biology & maternity care and this is 100% nonsense. There is no such thing as "woke science" there is science, that should challenge us and make us think. It may even increase our understanding. Please do better.
