National Birth Defects Month

Birth defects affect one in every 33 babies born in the U.S. The goal of #NationalBirthDefectsPreventionMonth is to generate awareness noting birth defects are common, costly, and critical, and to offer steps that you can take to increase your chance of having a healthy baby.

Our friends at www.cdc.gov/nccbddd/birthdefects/prevention.html offer some great educational handouts and tips that may help you #Prevent2Protect.
