Ostensen, M. (2013). Counseling women with systemic lupus erythematosus who desire children. International Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, (8.1), 27. doi: GALE|A316990757
This article goes into great depth regarding the complications, and education of women who have Systemic Lupus.

The study explains that not only premature births are very common, but also infant or prenatal mortality rates are several times higher than normal pregnancies, and those odds only increase as the mother gets older. Because of these reasons, the author emphasizes that counseling is a must for individuals with this condition, and the better of an understanding that that person(s) has, the better their odds are of having less, or no issues during pregnancy.
This article was very insightful. Besides going into great depth with charts regarding birth-control methods, the author emphasizes that remission is crucial to a less complicated birth. Even remission a couple of months before birth can lead to issues, and lack of taking the correct medicines, or refusal to take medications, can lead to more severe issues, increasing the odds of challenges.
