Our country’s premature birth rate has risen by 36 percent over the last 25 years. That’s serious cause for concern.
Premature birth costs society more than $26 billion a year and takes a high toll on families. Babies born just a few weeks early are at risk of severe health problems and lifelong disabilities. Premature birth is the number 1 killer of newborns. In 2003, the March of Dimes launched the Prematurity Campaign to address the crisis and help families have full-term, healthy babies. On Friday, November 16 the March of Dimes is hosting a Prematurity Summit and Victoria LaFromboise joined me on the KBear Morning Show with all the details!
