Maternal mortality is nothing short of an epidemic. Worldwide, hundreds of thousands of women are dying from complications during pregnancy or childbirth. We can change this: the majority of these deaths can be prevented if women have access to life-saving treatments, to well-equipped hospitals and to trained birth attendants.

Maternal and Infant Health, Reproductive Health - CDC
Safe Motherhood begins before conception with good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. It continues with appropriate prenatal care and preventing problems if they arise. The ideal result is a full-term pregnancy without unnecessary interventions, the delivery of a healthy baby, and a healthy postpartum period in a positive environment that supports the physical and emotional needs of the mother, baby, and family.
