Blanchard Valley Health System (BVHS) will host “Midwifery vs. Traditional Birth,” the first installment of the 2020 “Live and Learn” series.
This community presentation will focus on maternal health care and the similarities and differences between birthing options.
Two sessions on the topic will be held. The first is Thursday, Feb. 20, from noon to 1 p.m. at the town hall third floor, 154 N. Main St., Bluffton, featuring Dr. Molly Senokozlieff and midwife Laura Selvidio, CNM.
The Bluffton Police Department lobby on the town hall’s second floor provides residents with a safe medication disposal box. With a new year just a month old, it’s a good time to remind viewers of the service. Persons may place unwanted or expired medications in the drop box to help prevent accidents with children in your home. Items accepted include prescription meds and over the counter medications.

Bambino Mio, GroVia, Fill Your Pants, bumgenius, AppleCheeks, and Rumparooz - these are all brands of cloth diapers.
Cloth diapers have had a total revamp. I'm not talking about the big terrycloth squares that you perform a type of origami on, and then use giant safety pins to secure around your baby.
Cloth diapers nowadays come in dozens of different types, materials, shapes and colors: all-in-one, prefolds, envelope-style, pocket diaper with inserts, and choice of snaps or velcro closures and so on.
