"Use of Color Sensational Pink lipstick for a soft and girlish looks. In a pink lipstick shade is a soft look to the eyes is very suitable, for example, a nice soft colors and an arch in the arcade glansje on the eyelid.The Plums lipsticks provide a playful look, and what are bolder than the Pinks. The purples are great for warm evenings. With a purple tint lipmake up is nice to keep eye makeup natural, with lots of gloss or a light smokey eye.The lipsticks belonging to the family of the Reds make you look feminine and professional. For the reds, I think first of a beautiful black or dark brown smokey eye, but the shades are suitable for a softer eye makeup. For example when you look at all the focus on the mouth to keep.Finally, the Nudes a natural look. This color is really suitable for all patients. For example, for a fresh natural look during the day or evening you have your eyes heavily made up. With a nude lipstick you put the emphasis on your eyes, so the look is not too intense. In a nude lipmake up I would be a make-up with high gloss and not much color choice, for example, earth tones. "

This month focus on ...

chronic gastritis issues

In the long term workers in teams have chronic gastritis, gastric enteritis, stomach ulcers and colitis. Gastric ulcers are a fairly serious threat and are eight times more common in shift systems with night than day shifts and shift systems without nights. The biggest culprit of all these complaints - in addition to stress - the poor eating habits of shift workers generally. They often eat the wrong foods in wrong quantities wrong times. One of the main meals eaten at home but is either an earlier or later hours than usual or it is eaten in the workplace where the quality of the food is often unsatisfactory and the meal is consumed quickly in uncomfortable places. The cafeterias at night usually closed, if there are pre-packaged sandwiches available without nutritional value. There is an insufficient consumption of starches and complex carbohydrates such as pasta and rice. Mayonnaise and cakes are then often offered so that the power imbalance as a hit and people can feel tired and lethargic. Coffee and cola are machines galore, and a potable water tap is often impossible to find. The coffee consumption is at night 16% higher than during other shifts. Furthermore, the lunch at 25% of shift workers have beaten, usually not to interrupt their sleep. Smoking at night also made 13% more than during the day.

False and misleading explanation of the abortion

With a false and misleading explanation of the abortion light State Secretary for the Chamber wrong about the impact of the new amendments to the law and the work of Women on Waves. The result is an unlawful restriction on providing the abortion pill for the treatment of time (women less than 16 days overdue) by physicians with no special permit. The home of the abortion pill for the treatment of time is like an early miscarriage and is supported by the World Health Organization. The government tries Dutch Christian women in this way to deny access to scientific progress.

State Secretary Bussemaker, and Minister Hirsch Ballin inform MPs on the wrong days overdue (OTB), the amendment of the Termination of Pregnancy (BAZ) and the criminality of the OTB by Women on Waves.Women on Waves says that the Secretary of State on August 24 and September 4 questions in Parliament and Van Miltenburg Teeven, Juice and Gill'ard Heerts and incorrectly answered. On her website, Women on Waves at 12 points a detailed explanation.
The following summarizes the main criticisms.
False and misleading explanation of the current abortion law by ministers
The misinformation of the ministers is related to their false and misleading explanation of the abortion (Termination of Pregnancy Act = WAZ). This law has several articles. Article I of the WAZ regulates conditions for abortion, Article II provides that the penal code article 296 criminalizes abortion without a license. Pregnancy in the first and second article the same definition, namely as a woman more than 16 days overdue.The ministers do if suddenly there are two different laws and pregnancy use two definitions. They recognize that the time of treatment (OTB, treatment for 16 days overdue) under Article I does not. At the same time they state that this treatment under Article II (ie criminal law) is, which is incorrect and legally impossible.As a result of this fallacious reasoning wrongly inform the ministers that GPs OTB currently not allowed to carry without a permit. Also, they argue that Women on Waves (WOW) OTB currently without WAZ permit may carry out in international waters. Both claims of the ministers are legally incorrect and untenable.
Ministers ignore prior case law and decisions of Ministers
Both the Supreme Court and the State Council have stated that OTB does not fall under the WAZ with the consequence that this treatment WAZ no permit is required and this treatment not covered by the penalty provided for in Article II does. Also, former Minister of Health stated that the breast OTB is not punishable, provided medical care performed. This case law and legislative history can not just ignore and change, as ministers do so now.
Ministers refuse to questions about the legal definition of pregnancy to answer
A pregnancy begins with the fertilization of an egg. Yet, agents that prevent fertilization, or implantation of the fertilized egg is prevented, not the abortion. The question is, when the fertilized egg or under the abortion law will fall: at the time that the uterus ends up in the period when implantation in the uterus begins in the period that the production of pregnancy hormone starts (before the absence of menstruation) or the forthcoming period?Currently, the legal definition of a pregnancy if the period is more than 16 days has been received. The Secretary of State confirms nor denies this definition in its response to parliamentary questions, but now claims that pregnancy of less than 16 days overdue are not under Article I, but under Article II of the WAZ is. This reasoning may also apply to deem the morning-after pill and coil and treatments shortly before the absence of menstruation. He is referring to the Secretary of State's a slippery slope. These treatments would also be within the scope of the Criminal Code can be brought.
Ministers give false information on the amendment of the BAZ
Under pressure from the Christian parties, the PvdA government approved the OTB to bring under the WAZ. An impossible task, because no laws were simultaneously recorded with ethically sensitive issues change. The change of the BAZ (the Implementation of the WAZ), which please note in the explanatory memorandum that states that the OTB suddenly under the criminal law is, because in practice the OTB in abortion clinics with WAZ license place, can no Legal bracket. A ministerial decree can not (interpretation of) law change, this is an amendment necessary. The argument that the current practice now be specified by law is abused by the unlawful obstruction that GPs have experienced in obtaining the abortion pill.
Ministers give false information on persecution of Women on Waves
Women on Waves At its action in Spain in October 2008 the drug OTB from a yacht out. At that time there was no question of a change in the BAZ, OTB did not have the abortion (WAZ), and therefore not under the criminal law. There was no WAZ permit, nor did use of the mobile clinic associated with this permit is necessary.Nevertheless, support both the Secretary of Health and the Minister of Justice declared by the Inspectorate (IGZ) WOW with the PPS because it supposedly does not legally perform the OTB. Moreover, they provided incorrect answers to questions about the medical aspects of drug OTB, moving permits and using the abortion pill.
Finally
Women on Waves is an organization that laws and regulations very well, and acts accordingly. Despite opposition from Ministries of Justice and Health, she always got its legal equivalent.Women on Waves experience it as offensive, that suggest that ministers would violate laws of Women on Waves, while optimal quality of care and legal supplies.Women on Waves is deeply worrying that the Minister of Health on behalf of the Minister of Justice for MPs false light on legal and medical aspects of the OTB, both by GPs and by Women on Waves.

cervical incompetence

Most pregnancies are quite good and end in a pink cloud of happiness. But it is not always good and sometimes there are signs during pregnancy that suggest that something is not right. Important than on alert to respond. A possible cause of premature birth or miscarriage can include cervical incompetence.
What is cervical incompetence?
Cervical incompetence is initially painless progressive opening of the cervix (cervix). In other words, the cervix is ​​too weak (insufficiency) so it opens during pregnancy so there is a risk for premature delivery occurs.TopCervical incompetence
When can this occur?
Between 16 and 24 weeks some women may be faced with the problem of cervical incompetence. The reasons are (still) not fully known. There is, however, that the condition can occur due to the strong pull of the cervix. The risk is therefore higher in a multiple pregnancy. A previous trauma to the cervix, through operations like curretage, amputation, conization or cauterization, may also lead to cervical incompetence. For most women who have this problem, the cause can not be retrieved.
The probability that a subsequent pregnancy occurs again cervical incompetence is 15-30%.Top
Diagnosis: cervical incompetence
The determination of cervical incompetence is difficult because there is no diagnostic test available that can be performed. Unfortunately, so often only discovered after a woman had a miscarriage. The diagnosis is often established at that time by ruling out other possible causes.There are hardly any symptoms that you noticed. The opening is usually unnoticed, so you notice it until it's too late.Top
Treatment: The cerclage
Actually, a real cure is not possible, because if cervical incompetence is noted, the damage is already done. It is possible to opt for a preventive measure because by artificially keeping the cervix closed with a cerclage (the establishment of a support band around the cervix). For example, this can be chosen during a multiple pregnancy. The cerclage (Shirodkar operation) is mostly placed twelve to fourteen weeks, but it can sometimes be done - as an emergency procedure - later in pregnancy. The treatment usually takes place in the hospital, under epidural anesthesia. Often you can go home the same day.
After the support strap is attached you can get some more experience of separation. It is also important that you come with your doctor about how active you are may be, or you can have sex and how you can exercise. Usually there are no complications occurred during a voluntary but a cerclage noodcerclage, this is different. In any case, always consult with your doctor.

Start with a good start: Healthy Pregnant for Immigrants, information about starting successful pregnancy

Much has been said about the benefits of good information about pregnancy for women in disadvantaged situations. The Health Institute NIGZ Erfocentrum and now have joined forces and have beaten their knowledge and experience in this field used. They look back on a successful education project for migrant women. The project, short for Healthy Pregnant Immigrants called, was intended to inform immigrants about the possibilities for research and guidance on pregnancy. Health and pregnancy, heredity, prenatal testing and the heel prick were discussed here. Particular attention was paid to immigrants from specific hereditary diseases. The information is explicitly embedded in the information chain around pregnancy. Healthy Pregnancy for the design of Immigrants has proved effective for immigrant women to reach the necessary information about the pregnancy. The project therefore is a good practice.

Netherlands has high infant mortality and various vulnerable groups
This project is significant because the Netherlands has highest infant mortality in Europe. Research confirms that Turkish, Moroccan and Antillean and Surinamese populations in the Netherlands at increased risk of infant mortality. It seems insufficient knowledge of risk factors and the care to play a role. Timely and complete information can quickly here provide a good start. The Board Pregnancy and Birth emphasized in its report that information to women in disadvantaged situations of great importance.

Information VETC by specialists and foreign consultants to make GGDs
The report Healthy Pregnancy is now officially arrived. The project ran from January 2008 until December 2009. In this period 88 VETC care specialists and consultants of Public Health and trained in the Netherlands. Then they gave more than 100 group information sessions to about 1,400 immigrant women. VETC workers are educators in their own language and culture, accessible locations that provide information on health and education. For the information was used a specially developed curriculum. All this specific target material was developed by the Institute of Health and Erfocentrum NIGZ based on their knowledge of and experience with health education information.
It turned out that pregnancy and heredity are important issues for many immigrants. The talks were far off the target. And they provided information on which the information in the future can be further improved. Example by midwives and doctors to indicate knowledge gaps and misunderstandings that can arise in communication between caregiver and care recipient.Some quotes: "The course I heard about the experiences of other women. I was happy. Now I know I'm not the only one who finds it hard to say what I feel and what I want. "And:" I had never heard of folic acid. I always swallow vitamins, I thought that was enough. "

Conclusion: a good start
Healthy Pregnancy for Immigrants closely follows the recommendations of the Steering Pregnancy and Birth for more information on this subject approachable to offer. The project should preferably be incorporated in a local multi-disciplinary program regarding the reduction of perinatal mortality and promote health. As in ready for a child, the program of GGD and the Erasmus Medical Centre. The Erfocentrum NIGZ and see this project as a starting point to Healthy Pregnancy for further implementation of Immigrants in the Netherlands. Based on the experiences future information can be more effectively deployed. Moreover, this information also be expanded to other disadvantaged groups such as indigenous Dutch people with low socioeconomic status.
Also, information for the immigrants themselves must be made more accessible. For example, via a website where the target group specific information. Through this site may also VETC professionals and other caregivers be provided with current information.
In addition, it is recommended that the network of professionals and other immigrant VETC educators to further strengthen and well being embedded into the existing health care structures.
This project was developed by a number of funds by project [3]. A structural solution to fund such educational programs is urgently needed to more women in disadvantaged situations to achieve.
