Maternal deaths in the UK are rising—even though fewer babies are being born. In just a few years, deaths jumped from 209 to 254, and the rate per 100,000 births is up too. Experts are blaming years of neglect and poor care in NHS maternity services. Now, there’s a national investigation into what’s being called a ‘crisis’ in maternity care. The scariest part? Black women and those over 35 are at much higher risk. This is heartbreaking and honestly, pretty shocking. #Health #BodyHealth #MaternityCare
