💜WORLD PREMATURITY DAY 2025 💜
“Born too soon should never mean born without a chance.” 💜🌸

Every year, thousands of Tanzanian babies arrive before time — fragile, tiny, but full of strength. And standing at their side from the very first breath are Midwives:
💜The first hands to hold them
💜The steady voice that comforts scared mothers
💜The skilled experts keeping babies warm, safe & alive
💜The heartbeat of newborn care in every facility

Today, we honour all preterm babies, their families, and the midwives fighting every day to give them a fair start in life.

💜🌸 Let’s make noise for every tiny fighter!
👉 Tag a midwife who is a preemie champion
👉 Tag someone born too soon (we will will start with )
👉 Drop a 💜🌸 for all preemies
👉 Comment: “Every baby deserves a chance!”
