Research from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation found that these social determinants “can drive as much as 80 percent of health outcomes.” #BMHMothersDay
Beyond the 700–900 women who suffer from pregnancy complications that result in death, an additional 60,000 women suffer pregnancy-related complications that are near fatal. #BMHMothersDay

“She is part of those statistics now.” Black and ethnic minority women are more likely to die in and around childbirth than white women. Naomi’s sister died after giving birth to her second child. This is her story.

Today is AFE awareness day which stands for amniotic fluid embolism. My baby boy and I were lucky to have survived this 16 years ago but many do not and there is still much to learn. Please consider a donation to #ENDAFE facebook.com/donate/88704694…
