BMMA is outraged and deeply disturbed by the attacks against the Abundant Birth Project, a San Francisco-based program that has been helping Black Mamas and Mamas of color to access quality, comprehensive perinatal care.

If you are #pregnant or were pregnant in the last year, watch for urgent maternal warning signs. These signs can be seen up to 1 year after pregnancy.

If you experience any of these signs, seek medical attention immediately.

#Preeclampsia #HELLPSyndrome #eclampsia can happen to any woman in any #pregnancy or #postpartum.

While it is true that some have a higher risk than others, you can still develop it with no risk factors and generally good health. #knowyournumbers
