A great outcome!

There is a growing awareness with some of our population of the benefits of care during pregnancy leading to better outcomes. Some patients are willing and have the ability to travel to ensure they get the safest pregnancy and birth they can. Naw Kaler Kalu started accessing our care as she was wanting to ensure the best and safest birth she could. It turned out that her beautiful baby was refusing to put his head into the pelvis but rather wanting to sit in the pelvis in the breech position. We were able to arrange a safe and timely birth for her with no emergency and no stress. This is what we would like for more women of our rural areas. The right care at the right time without ridiculous extra factors, such as days of transport, walking, or worrying about finances to overcome in an emergency situation.
