Hi All,
I’ve got a question about the rate of premature babies. In Chapter 10: When Will the Baby Come? of Husband-Coached Childbirth p. 189, Dr. Bradley notes that the rate of premature babies has been increasing. I have not done any research into this but, empirically, I do often hear about a lot of premature births in my social circle. Does anyone have a pet theory or research to support why the rate of premature babies may be on the rise, or whether or not this is demonstrable? I’m curious to hear your thoughts.
Sincerely,
Grace Bellafiore
