Every 2 minutes a woman dies from pregnancy related complications. Skilled care before, during and after saves lives.

Welcome to my blog, supporting life-saving healthcare for women and babies around the globe!

This blog begun as an act in leadership for global maternal and infant health. Since I am enrolled in Mercy In Action's Post-Graduate Diploma program for International Midwifery, I decided to start a blog where I will be sharing some of the things that I am learning about the needs around the world in maternal and infant health during pregnancy and birth.

May God be glorified.
