The maternal care gap is growing - 20% of Obstetricians leave their position annually. The U.S has the highest rate of maternal-infant morbidity and mortality than any other developed nation. American women are three times more likely to die during pregnancy, delivery, or within one year of giving birth than women in any other country. 60% of these outcomes are preventable. The cost of these outcomes is estimated at $400 billion annually. Patients love BabyLiveAdvice as it is a service that supports women's every need from pregnancy to two years of age in one place
