Save The Mommies is a non-profit organization based in Lincoln, NE, dedicated to advocating, educating, and researching the prevention of Peripartum Cardiomyopathy (PPCM). They emphasize the importance of early diagnosis through a free self-test, as PPCM can pose severe risks to both the mother and baby, leading to injury or even death. With a focus on raising awareness and providing support, Save The Mommies aims to save lives by promoting timely intervention and proper medical care.
Peripartum Cardiomyopathy is a condition characterized by the enlargement and weakening of the heart chambers, resulting in reduced blood flow and oxygen supply to vital organs. Save The Mommies highlights the symptoms of PPCM, including severe shortness of breath, extreme swelling or weight gain, fainting, chest pain or fast heartbeats, persistent cough, and wheezing. By offering a self-test and encouraging individuals to seek medical attention if experiencing these symptoms, Save The Mommies strives to make a significant impact in preventing and managing PPCM for the well-being of mothers and their babies.
