		CDC. CDC Webcast: Pregnant Women and New Moms (August 27, 2009). 2009; Abstract Visit This is a great discussion about key issues in H1N1 and pregnancy. Good for mothers and for providers. It is a YouTube video that is an hour long (scroll down the list of archived Webcasts to August 27, 2009). An important discussion on newborn isolation is at minute 34:40. This emphasizes clinical judgment for the need to isolate the baby after birth: if the mother is very ill then the baby is isolated. However, if the mother is on treatment and doing well then the need for isolation is not well established. This has not yet been put into writing as a formal recommendation by the CDC but is what many practitioners are doing in clinical practice.
