healthcare for women in this country is abysmal. the rate of maternal death is the highest of all developed countries & black women die at an even higher rate. I certainly would not want to be black & pregnancy in this country & certainly not the south

The maternal death rate is rising in the U.S. since 2000. #womenshealth #reproductivehealth #maternalmortality

You don’t need to be confident.
You just need to meet your life with presence, courage, and an openness to starting again.
And again, and again, and again.
Confidence will grow from there.

I am proud to join women leaders in arts, entertainment, sports, and business calling on @SenSchumer to pass the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act! It’s time to treat women and moms with the respect and dignity we deserve. abetterbalance.org/resources…

Jimmy Carter is trending again, as he should be, because he's 98 years old, kind, and still volunteering to make life better for the world. Thanks, Jimmy 😊

We were delighted to have this paper accepted in @IJQMonline with no revisions after three peer reviewers had assessed it - we hope it will advance our field of qualitative research and be of use to researchers of all levels of experience!
Qualitative researchers can be exposed to emotionally charged, distressing, & compromising content. We outline how to keep researchers safe.

Every maternal death is heartbreaking. Every death that could have been prevented with proper care is unacceptable.
Healthy pregnancies begin before conception. Quality prenatal, pregnancy & postpartum care (w/ mental health care) help to improve health equity & prevent deaths.
More than 80% of pregnancy-related deaths were preventable according to an analysis of new data (bit.ly/3UyIjbx) from Maternal Mortality Review Committees (MMRCs) in 36 US States.

Tragically, the risks for new mothers continue beyond the first day, the first weeks, the first months postpartum, and especially for maternal death related to an untreated maternal mental health condition, through the first year. Time for a continuum of care, no expiration date.

Pregnant women in the Unites States are more than twice as likely to be murdered during pregnancy or shortly after childbirth than they are to die from the three main medical causes of maternal death associated with childbirth, new research shows. abcn.ws/3sEzT5l

I seriously need to tell the world that hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal death and also the most preventable. Stop the nonsense of ‘pure blood’ transfusions. MOTHERS WILL DIE.

Suicide is a preventable but leading cause of maternal death in the US. Effective, free and validated screening tools exist to identify those at risk for perinatal depression. Treatment is available and can have a significant impact. @2020MomProject 2020mom.org/maternal-suicide

I believe @4kira4moms led by Charles Johnson, has an initiative that centers Black Men/Fathers whom have experienced maternal death. Thank you so much for your leadership & the work of @_beamorg 🤎🙏🏾
