Echoing the lack of postpartum care. The baby gets checkups from a week, to a month and then 2 months and more. The mother gets a 6 week “you good appointment?” And that’s it. On the postpartum screener my wife indicated that she was feeling down and like a failure. They didn’t even read it - let her walk out of there like she just didn’t just say S.O.S in writing. Healthcare doesn’t value the health of women- even more so when you check any of the boxes that indicate you’re non- white.

It is really nuts how bad the system is.
