Preeclampsia is a serious pregnancy complication that causes high blood pressure and protein in the urine. It typically develops after 20 weeks, and can persist until delivery (or even later). Although the exact cause is not known, preeclampsia might be the result of an abnormal interaction between the placenta and the mother’s immune system. The good news? Preeclampsia can be managed safely with proper monitoring and treatment. https://heyor.ca/F7HfNA

Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders announces ‘Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies Act’ for maternal health

Year after year, government data have shown that the maternal mortality rate in the United States remains unacceptably high, with Black and American Indian or Alaska Native pregnant and postpartum people disproportionately experiencing health inequities. The vast majority—roughly 80%—of maternal deaths are considered preventable, and nearly half of maternal deaths occur between seven and 365 days postpartum, not during delivery itself. (The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, Maternal Health Awareness Day 2025)

At Your Family Tree Doula Services, we are dedicated to offering more than just support for families to achieve their desired labor and birth experience. We stand as advocates for every mother who feels neglected in her healthcare, ensuring that her voice is heard. Childbirth should never be a matter of luck or privilege—it should be a safe and supported experience for all.
