November 17 is World Prematurity Day. Last year, bloggers across the United States joined together in the fight for preemies. This year, help spread the energy and message around the world.
Join the March of Dimes, the European Foundation for the Care of Newborn Infants, Africa’s Little Big Souls International Foundation and Australia’s National Premmie Foundation in support of World Prematurity Day. Help give our smallest world citizens the healthy start they deserve.
Did you or someone close to you have a baby who was born too soon, too small, unable to breathe or nurse on his own? If so, you know how scary premature birth is.
While medical advances give many babies a chance of survival, for others it remains a life-or-death condition. Babies who survive their early birth can face serious health challenges and risk lifelong disabilities.
Premature birth is a big problem in the United States. In other parts of the world, where hospitals and health providers may be ill-equipped to care for preemies, or the nearest hospital is days away, the problem is even more serious.
