[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its true. It has to do with access to prenatal care. Countries that have government run or subsidized healthcare tend do do a little better on the list.[/quote] Yes, and since we've got half our population currently living in poverty or near poverty, MANY women are not getting the prenatal care they need. [/quote] But, isn't prenatal care more crucial for the health of the baby, versus health of the mom? [/quote] No. Checking your weight, your urine, and your blood work at those visits has more to do with your health and catching potential problems before they harm you. The ultrasounds, the belly measurements, and the heart beat checks are for the baby. Both are incredibly important for successful outcome for mother and baby.[/quote]
