Wait for healthy babies - 39 week info-graphic!

Another inspiration from the results of the Listening to Mothers Survey III ... I currently work on a March of Dimes funded grant project with the Florida Perinatal Quality Collaborative where we provide education and support to hospitals and providers in an effort to eliminate non-medically indicated deliveries before 39 weeks of gestation. The recent LTM-III survey results reveal dis-heartening statistics about a mother's knowledge of a "term" pregnancy... SO MANY MOTHERS still don't know that a healthy pregnancy should be allowed to continue for AT LEAST 39 weeks! Check out my info-graphic below: Spread the word and protect those tiny, developing babies! A Full-term p regnancy is 10 MONTHS!!! ~Wisdom and Birth
