Yes! It is so much more than "just high blood pressure"!
If we just describe preeclampsia as “high blood pressure in pregnancy,” we are setting ourselves up for failure, says Ukachi N Emeruwa, MD, MPH, @MissUkachi @UCSDMedSchool

Friends and fellow grievers, I need your help. I need at least 1K followers on my @itsallgrieftome insta to keep doing lives. I am locked in on ensuring my community has a quality place to be while navigating their grief. Will y’all follow and share? Thank you so much!! 🙏🏾
Going back through our journey from Maryland to Atlanta encouraged me soooo much. It was a hard season, but God's fingerprints were all over it! You can watch from the beginning or catch up on the ones you missed here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…
We must do better; not only here in Georgia, but globally.

Maternal mental health is maternal health. Yet Black women facing postpartum depression are often dismissed or go without care.
Policies like CA’s SB 626 and the work of our Alliance Partners are changing that—providing healing, support & culturally aligned services.

Any woman can develop #preeclampsia in any #pregnancy, regardless of BMI. While obesity can put you at higher risk for developing complications like hypertension and gestational diabetes during pregnancy, it does NOT MEAN that patients will develop it.

📢 New CDC data shows U.S. maternal mortality dropped in 2023, but Black women still face rates nearly 3x higher than the national average.
This is why we continue to fight for maternal health equity!
