Jennifer Vargas+FollowWhy Moms Are Secretly StrugglingMother’s Day is coming, but did you know moms are facing a mental health crisis? New data shows moms are way more stressed than dads or non-parents, and it’s not just about juggling schedules—think hormones, isolation, and the pressure to do it all perfectly. Even in two-parent homes, moms carry the mental load. Experts say what moms really need isn’t just flowers, but real support, community, and less stigma around asking for help. Let’s talk about it! #MomsMentalHealth #MotherhoodUnfiltered #MentalHealthAwareness #SupportMoms #Health41Share
Douglas Robinson+FollowWhy Maternal Care in the US Is So BrokenYou’d think having a baby in the US would be safe, but our maternal mortality rates are shockingly high—worse than most other rich countries. The wild part? Over 80% of these deaths are preventable! The biggest issues: lack of access to care, mental health support, and insurance (especially after birth).

It’s wild how much needs to change! #MaternalHealth #HealthcareAccess #SupportMoms #EndMaternalMortality #ListenToMoms40Share
