Before Elaine Welteroth gave birth to her son at her Los Angeles home in 2022, she says she had some unfortunate experiences looking for an OB-GYN.
伊莱恩·韦尔特罗斯说，在2022年她在洛杉矶的家中生下儿子之前，她在寻找妇产科医生时有过一些不幸的经历。
“I think pregnancy is the most vulnerable time for any woman,” says Welteroth. The former co-host of The Talk and her husband Jonathan Singletary relocated to Los Angeles during her first pregnancy.
“我认为怀孕对任何女性来说都是最脆弱的时期，”韦尔特罗斯说。这位脱口秀节目《The Talk》的前联合主持人和她的丈夫乔纳森·辛格勒里在她第一次怀孕期间搬到了洛杉矶。
“I came into childbirth and pregnancy really naive,” she says. “I was kind of shocked by how little I knew about birth and navigating the medical system. I thought, I've done hard things in my life. How hard could it be to have a baby? You find a doctor, you go to the hospital, you get the epidural, you have the baby.”
“我生孩子和怀孕的时候真的很天真，”她说。“我对分娩和医疗系统知之甚少，这让我有点震惊。我想，我这辈子做过很多艰难的事。生个孩子能有多难?你去找医生，去医院，接受硬膜外麻醉，生下孩子。”
Welteroth, 37, recently enlisted the help of fellow moms and stars like Kelly Rowland, Serena Williams, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen to launch BirthFund, an initiative to help fund midwifery for new moms with the hope of helping reverse a startling rise in maternal mortality rates in the U.S., especially for Black women.
37岁的韦尔特斯最近在凯利·罗兰、塞雷娜·威廉姆斯、约翰·传奇和克里斯·特根等明星的帮助下发起了“生育基金”，这是一项为新妈妈们提供助产资金的倡议，希望能帮助扭转美国孕产妇死亡率的惊人上升，尤其是对黑人女性而言。
