Cartoon: Death by life

Grace Stiefel, Staff Writer • April 18, 2024
Pregnancy and childbirth are often considered symbolic of life and new beginnings. However, many undergoing pregnancy face concerns about losing their own life. Most maternal deaths are caused by excessive bleeding and infections after childbirth or can be a result of complications during delivery. Those who experienced severe or mild complications such as high blood pressure and gestational diabetes during a past pregnancy are also at high risk. Complications during pregnancy can cause deaths up to 50 years later. Informing oneself about the risks during pregnancy and the possible aftermath is critical to staying safe. (Grace Stiefel)
