Hailey Okula, a nursing influencer, died due to a rare childbirth complication known as amniotic fluid embolism. Her husband, Matthew Okula, confirmed her death on April 1. Hailey briefly met her newborn son on March 29 before passing away. The complication, which has no treatment or diagnostic method, occurs in about 1 in 40,000 deliveries. Matthew, a Los Angeles firefighter, shared an emotional tribute on Instagram on April 8, promising to tell their son about Hailey’s spirit, strength, and kindness. Hailey had over 440,000 Instagram followers and ran an educational platform for nurses called RH New Grads. Matthew expressed gratitude for their life together and vowed to continue Hailey’s vision in her honor.

Trump MUST ammend the order to add clause “NATURAL BIRTH TILL 20th FEB”
That way at least lives and future health complications of mother & new-born could be AVOIDED.
Trumps team must have taken care in DRAFTING order, anticipating such HEALTH EMERGENCY POSSIBILITY FOR NEW-BORNs

traditional midwives, I had complications from prolonged labour. The women that were with me when I was in labour said that a strong woman delivers her baby at home; so, I was in labour for two days at home, and the baby died, and I suffered a severe case of obstetric fistula.

Women are powerful, resilient, and life-givers. But too many mothers face life-threatening complications due to postpartum hemorrhage, with limited access to blood and platelets.
This International Women’s Day, we celebrate women, but also take action to support them.

I’ve seen pregnancy complications almost take the life of 3 of my cousins. My own mother became a shadow of herself after having me, she went through so much with her second pregnancy she said no more children after me. A family friend of ours recently died during child birth
