Today is #WorldPrematurityDay. Babies are usually born between the 37th and 42nd week of pregnancy. Due to different reasons, some babies are born before the 37th week of pregnancy. Worldwide, over 10% of births each year are preterm. We would like to draw special attention to this topic by honouring all premature babies and parents today. Premature babies need special care and especially a lot of affection. Huge thank you to all the caregivers for their daily commitment to supporting the little superheroes in their difficult start.

1 baby in 10 is born prematurely. Worldwide.
