World Prematurity Day reminds us of the strength and resilience of preemies and their families. This week, we extend our gratitude to birthworkers, NICU staff, and communities who provide unwavering support to these tiny fighters. For families, the premature birth journey can feel overwhelming, but small acts of care—like encouraging words or simply being present—make a difference. Birthworkers, what strategies do you use to provide emotional support? ??

This year, 2024, the World Prematurity Day theme is “Over 130 lakhs babies born too soon every year. Access to quality care everywhere!”. The theme raises awareness about the challenges and risks associated with preterm birth (babies born less than 37 weeks gestation), which is a leading cause of death among children under five years old and the number one cause of childhood disability. It highlights the urgent need for better healthcare, policies, and support systems for premature babies and their families. #occupationaltherapy #occupationaltherapist #paediatricoccupationaltherapy #paediatricoccupationaltherapist #sensoryintegrationtherapy #sensoryintegrationtherapist #oralsensoryintegrationtherapy #oralsensoryintegrationtherapist #earlyinterventiontherapist #earlyinterventiontherapy #occupationaltherapyforkids #occupationaltherapystudent #occupationaltherapyforchildren

I was blown away by this! Men play a vital role in healthy birthing practices. Their presence in the delivery room can significantly impact the birthing experience. In Sierra Leone, where clinic access is limited, fostering a positive dynamic during childbirth becomes even more critical. When fathers actively participate, they provide essential support that reassures mothers, reduces stress, and positively influences labor progression. This shared journey strengthens the bond between partners and promotes overall family well-being. By encouraging men's involvement and dismantling taboos, we're fostering a supportive environment where families thrive. Do you agree in the power of dads? Let's empower fathers, embrace change, and advocate for healthier birthing practices. #EmpoweringFathers #HealthyBirthing #FreedomTreeImpact #BirthJustice #SaveMothers #AfricaHealth #WomensRights #BirthMatters
