Every time you share your experiences with parenthood, pregnancy, and loss, you bring awareness to issues that affect so many of us. That’s why we’re launching #UnspokenStories, a supportive community where you can give voice to your experience and connect with others to talk about the issues that impact us––from the joys of parenting to the heartbreak of loss. Share your story. We’re here for it. - - - - - We encourage you to share your journey by recording a short video on your phone (20-30 seconds) sharing a particular story, anecdote, advice or anything that you would like to tell other moms. We then invite you to share your video on your social media channels - it only takes hearing one story like your own to know that you’re not alone. Videos will also be highlighted on the #UnspokenStories website so that together we can help empower and connect moms, families and babies everywhere.

There are almost 4 million babies born in the United States each year. Nearly every one of them will be screened for dangerous health conditions that are not apparent at birth. Each year, this prevents more than 12,000 infants from dying or experiencing complications leading to permanent intellectual and physical disabilities. Newborn screening has saved or improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of infants since population screening began almost 60 years ago. Tell your officials to support newborn screenings and save infant lives!
.Raise your voice before the end of September 2019, before critical newborn screening programs expire.

.@MarchofDimes launched #BlanketChange, an advocacy campaign to spread awareness about increased maternal mortality & preterm birth rates. Congress passed both the PREEMIE Reauthorization Act & Preventing Maternal Deaths Act. See accomplishments here: http://bit.ly/MODacc18
March of Dimes added their sixth Prematurity Center at the Imperial College London. Imperial College London's expertise joins the US centers' effort to find the causes of prematurity and develop lifesaving solutions. See more 2018 accomplishments at: http://bit.ly/MODacc18
The March of Dimes renews their commitment to babies by creating The My NICU Baby™ App & Facebook Mentorship program, which provides information to improve families’ experiences during and after a NICU stay.

This fall March of Dimes launched #BlanketChange, a powerful advocacy campaign designed to cultivate awareness about the urgent health crisis moms and babies face—including increased rates of maternal mortality and preterm birth, and maternity care deserts across the U.S. It inspired advocacy and action as 700 blankets were displayed on the National Mall to represent the 700 women who die from pregnancy-related complications each year. We called upon congressional candidates to commit to fighting for the health of all moms and babies, and it made a difference—in the weeks after the campaign, Congress passed both the PREEMIE Reauthorization Act and the Preventing Maternal Deaths Act, two top priorities for #BlanketChange. See more 2018 accomplishments at: http://bit.ly/MODacc18
In 2018 we extended our network of Prematurity Research Centers to six by welcoming the Imperial College London as our first European center. The expertise of Imperial College London in the area of glycobiology is unmatched by any other institution and is complementary to our other research—all centers are working together to find the causes of prematurity and develop lifesaving solutions. See more 2018 accomplishments at: http://bit.ly/MODacc18
March of Dimes was among a pilot group of organizations offering a digital, one-to-one mentoring service through Facebook’s platform. The Facebook Mentorship program connects a newly graduated NICU mom to a mom with a similar NICU experience, teaches balanced self-care and shares advice and content within a trusting mentor-mentee relationship.New technology, like the My NICU Baby™ App, provides trusted information to improve families’ experiences during a stressful time. It helps families find peace of mind during and after their NICU stay with answers to questions and helpful resources. See more 2018 accomplishments at: http://bit.ly/MODacc18
Scientists developed a new blood test using biomarkers in maternal blood that accurately identified (75 to 80 percent) pregnant women who would go on to deliver babies up to two months prematurely.. The new Database for Preterm Birth Research enables teams to work together more efficiently. The database integrates the work of researchers and clinicians from a broad range of disciplines at all six March of Dimes research centers and also is an open-access site.

On October 10, 2018 we started our Blanket Change campaign to continue our fight for moms and babies. With more than 700 moms dying in childbirth and pregnancy last year, the U.S. is the most dangerous developed nation in which to give birth. We’re sure that just like us, you find this completely unacceptable. Join our campaign by posting on Facebook, Twitter and/or Instagram with #BlanketChange. This one small act can help make a huge difference in creating awareness and pushing for real #BlanketChange. Be a part of it at marchofdimes.org/blanketchange.
