Every year, tens of thousands of families in the U.S. lose a baby to stillbirth. 💜

What can you do to help?
👶 Tracking movements saves lives. If you or someone you know is pregnant, download the FREE Count the Kicks app. Monitoring a baby’s movements is a proven way to help prevent stillbirth, and the app makes it simple for parents to track movement and feel empowered.

📣 Speak up! Urge lawmakers to make stillbirth prevention a priority: https://healthybirthday.org/advocacy/national-stillbirth-prevention-day/

Together, we can save lives. 💜
