What the petition asks
We the undersigned wish for it to made law that ALL first time mothers are to fall into the high risk category. It should NEVER be assumed that a women carrying her 1st child is low risk as she hasn't been through a pregnancy before. Only 2nd pregnancies should that be decided and agreed upon.
1300 babies we're killed or maimed at the hands of nursing errors and negligence in 2014 alone.
If some of those mothers we're treated as high risk that number would definitely be less.
These deaths could of been avoided and things need to change to prevent this from happening in the future.
