Kelly Whitehead is a scientist-mom, who lost a preemie son and went on to have two high-risk pregnancies. She wrote High-Risk Pregnancy-Why Me? (which is backed by a top perinatologist, Dr. Berghella) as an educational tool and emotional guide for those experiencing a difficult pregnancy and the providers who work with them.

She is also a trained doula, birth advocate and spokesperson for Sidelines National High Risk Pregnancy Support Network.

The road to parenthood is tough enough. Adding the fear of a possible premature baby can make it overwhelming: bed rest, countless meds, endless tests, no sex, the list goes on and on.
