Thank you, e-Lovu friends! Proud to partner with you on expanding access to our Birth Navigators (virtual doulas + care navigation) and your powerful platform in 4 U.S. states. Together, we're scaling access to doulas with the mission of a doula for every birth—given their evidence-based impact on C-section rates, preterm birth, birth satisfaction, and mental health. Happy #WorldDoulaWeek to our many doula friends + the wonderful team at e-Lōvu 🧡
Why does Doula care matter? Did you know that "in those with induced labor, women with doula support had a cesarean rate of 12.5% compared to the control at 58.8%" (Sobczak et al, 2023). Doulas bring cost effectiveness for the delivery system and better outcomes for moms and babies. In celebration of World Doula Week, e-Lōvu gives a big shout out to to our marketplace partners Bettina Paek, MD, MBA of eDoula and Alison Greenberg of Ruth Health (YC S21) for their groundbreaking work in doula care. We honor you. Santosh Pandipati, MD, FACOG Terry Duesterhoeft Jennifer Gibson Janobia T. George, MSN, RNC-OB Miriam O. Julie Harris, RN, CDE Michelle Randolph (Jones) Kristen Freeman Wojahn Steven J. Sager Barry Rosen Nathaniel DeNicola, MD, MSHP Rupa Basu Susan Solinsky Eziah Zaidi-Syed Anthony D'Eredita, JD, MSL, MBA

Medicaid disenrollments: yet another reason why birth navigators + doulas like the ones we offer affirm and potentially save lives. This is story is horrific—and preventable. If you work at a clinic, hospital, health system, insurance company, RPM, or healthcare SaaS company that touches the birthing journey, DM us to learn how these situations can be triaged, and even prevented 🧡 https://lnkd.in/eZuKNJ2J

Congrats to our former Lead Doula Raven Parris, RN, CBS on her promotion to Director of Clinical Operations! Raye has grown with us at Ruth Health (YC S21) since she joined the team almost two years ago, and never hesitates to learn, build, and take action. Her care has saved and affirmed the lives of countless patients and their families. As an RN, CCM, and Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, her knowledge of birthwork AND healthcare ops are impressive. She's the southern soul of the team—plus her son brings joy to every meetings cameo (fun/cute fact: the kids of Ruth Health are now Zoom besties cc: Kimberly McFerron). Thank you for your hard work and dedication, Raye! We're all grateful for the chance to work alongside you. (Here's one of our viral favorites ft. Raye—nearly 54,000 views + 160+ comments, engaging folks on how to advocate for themselves during L&D!) https://lnkd.in/e_28cY7U

Thanks for the coverage + to Emmeline Ventures for hosting! Great to meet the Fenwick team and all the women's health innovators who joined for #NYTechWeek.
Senior Business Development Manager | Growth-oriented, strategic thinker, relationship management, community builder
#NYTechWeek has been one of the best things I’ve had the opportunity to take part in. Huge kudos to a16z Katia Ameri, Iñaki Pedroarena-Leal Domino Lee for organizing and curating top-notch events bringing together an amazing community of founders, funders and everyone that supports the NY tech ecosystem. Our Fenwick & West NY office had an ambitious lineup of events and crushed it (if I do say so😊). We met some truly amazing individuals, collaborated with inspiring folks, gained invaluable insights, and made incredible connections. A quick recap below, but already thinking of our next in-office events – what would be impactful for you to see more of at Fenwick? 📈 Monday, Fenwick partner Per Chilstrom delved into IPO Market Trends & Readiness with Goldman Sachs managing directors Danielle Freeman and Michael Kenworthy 👩🏽💻 Tuesday, Fenwick partner Jennifer Yoo, Naseem Sayani (she/her) of Emmeline Ventures and Oriana Fuentes #WomenInHealthtech kicked off the day with forward-looking conversation on the state of women's health, featuring the founders of Alloy Women's Health, Evvy, FemGevity, Hey Jane, MDisrupt, Ruth Health (YC S21), and She Matters Inc . Our evening wrapped with Fenwick partner Sarah Fergusson Chambless leading an incredible discussion with Trailblazers Rebecca Minkoff and Sallie Krawcheck, co-hosted with Halogen Ventures and The Female Founder Collective, leaving the group inspired! Shout out to MATTER OF FACT, Tea Drops and Vivoo for their generous contributions to the event's gift bag. 🤖 Wednesday, our AI Breakfast with Fenwick partners Vejay Lalla and Stuart Meyer, Mehdi Osman of OpenReplay, Brennan M. Woodruff 🐕 of GoCharlie.ai, Francesco Ricciuti of Runa Capital with our fantastic moderator Christopher Spillane at Runa Capital, was a resounding hit. We followed that with an inspirational fireside chat with 🍕 Slice app founder Ilir Sela and Fenwick partner Ian Goldstein. 🏥 Thursday, XRC Ventures Partner Ally Tumasova (Tam) and Samantha Stokes had a discussion with Rona Li of Redesign Health, Robert Coombs of Baton Health, Ed Sclater of Motiv, and Kereeti Pisapati of Mount Sinai Innovation Partners on “How to Drive Commercial Partnerships within Healthtech” – a goldmine of knowledge! (There was a missed opportunity to host a 🎭 comedy show with our building-mates and Olivia Deng of Banana Capital! But cheers if you enjoyed the discussion and followed with their incredible event) I am so grateful for the chance to have been a part of these remarkable events. A huge shoutout to a 🔥 team for their incredible work in making Fenwick x NY Tech Week an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. 🌟 Stay tuned for more exciting updates from Fenwick and enjoy the rest of NY Tech Week's events tonight and tomorrow!

Thanks to friend of Ruth Health + longtime partner Sarah Ezrin for featuring our Chief Experience Officer Kimberly McFerron in this great Yoga Journal piece! ------- “When baby moves lower into the pelvis to prepare for birth, the pelvic joints can contract, expand, rotate, and even separate,” explains Kimberly McFerron, chief experience officer for the women’s telehealth company Ruth Health. This is true even if the delivery is via Cesarean section. These changes are possible due to the pregnancy-specific hormone relaxin, which loosens connective tissue and joints throughout the body. But the production of relaxin does not stop immediately after birth. McFerron cautions her patients that their bodies can continue to release the hormone at a fairly high concentrations postpartum. If someone chooses to breastfeed, the body may continue to produce relaxin throughout the nursing period. https://lnkd.in/gahe9HXM
