Your Health (By Robert E. nanieie, M. D.l (Secretary Decatur Health Board) “Pregnancy And Health" The whole precess ot pregnancy and child birth is an amasiug phenomenon. It is uaduabtedly the grew lest miracle that manaiud has bad the privilege of witness-1 {lng. Yet It has grown commonplace through sheer influem. of its frequency. Certainly It grew ommm enough that it was a long lime be- ■ fore enough thought aud study was put forward to attach to the event a detiniti iuallh hasard. A certain loss of Ute apparently set-mod Inevitable. Il was rather expected for a pregnant woman or a nursing mother to do a lot ot complaining aud tn general act "funny." NolHidy hesitated to place the blame for a lot of ailments on | ■ hildbirth. likewise nobody seem-I ed to realise that most of those troubles were preventable. But we know now that what was once I looked upon as normal acioinpaaltnents of pregnancy and childbirth ! were largely the result ot tgnor-1 ance, neglect and w illtul wasting | ot normal energies. There are those who stlL refuso to acknowledge that time and I money spent In proper super vision I and treatment ot our cx|H-ctant mothers have brought great re- • suits. Fortunately this ctaaa is declining in numbers. Tw.-nty years ago on< child in hve born lust its life; today the I ngure is only one hi Zu. Keaaiia ’ of thia sort are undeniable, but ' the total is still too high. Continued Invitations to the people IQ join scieme and the medical pr«e tession in educatnmal advancement are necessary. ITegnancy and childbirth mark tb«* first stage *>l a campaign to, ■ onsene and improve human life.
