Mandatory reporting is the only way we can really make changes. Doctor and hospital fear of liability is harming mothers and families.REPORT COMMENTS

My daughter recently survived an AFE, hopefully without any apparent residual effects. We had never heard of AFE until she almost died during a procedure following a miscarriage. It is devastating enough to lose a baby let alone the physical trauma of the AFE. She is doing remarkably well so far. What I want everyone to know is that there isn't a lot of information, medical statistics, or record gathering going on regarding this pregnancy complication. More information needs to be made public and more medical data collected to help with research as to what causes this devastating medical problem.REPORT COMMENTS

My daughter passed away on 11/18/2015, due to an afe, just hours after an emergency c-section. The dr's had no idea what the cause of her complications were from until a few hours later. By then it was too late. She never even got to see her beautiful baby boy. She was 24 and perfectly healthy. These cases definitely need more awareness!REPORT COMMENTS

My daughter passed away 3/24/2015 due to complications from an AFE she suffered on 12/9/2014. AFE nor anything related to birth complications was not shown on her death certificate. I don't even know if Alabama records maternal mortality rates. I should know but I don't. I think its ridiculous that this type information is not recorded in ALL of the United States. I think people would be shocked at the numbers.REPORT COMMENTS

Florida is a state who reviews maternal mortality and makes recommendations on how we can prevent future events. Every state should be working on this.REPORT COMMENTS

My healthy 35 year old daughter died in childbirth from an AFE at a major university hospital in Chapel Hill, NC. They did not list it as maternal mortality on the death certificate. For the United States to rank 41st in maternal mortality -- and this without even honest or accurate reporting -- is a national disgrace.REPORT COMMENTS
