Prematurity Awareness Month

Did you know that November is "Prematurity Awareness Month"? 



According to the March of Dimes, "the awareness month kicks off on November 1 with the release of the 2011 Premature Birth Report Card and November 17 marks World Prematurity Day."*  The goal is to bring the serious problem of premature births to light.

According to the Report Card*, the United States received a "C" and Texas received a "D"....meaning that we still have some work to do in order to bring our prematurity rates down.  Please check out their website (listed below) for more information on how you can help raise awareness this month and throughout the year!

Happy November!
