What is the PDP?
The Postpartum Data Project is a mother-led initiative making the realities of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum impossible to ignore. Too often, mothers’ experiences go untracked, leading to missed diagnoses, untreated trauma, and preventable suffering. By collecting anonymous stories worldwide, we’re building a central data hub that exposes gaps in care, challenges bias, and pushes for real change. Your voice matters. Together we can prove that mothers deserve better.
Prenatal & Postpartum Education
Examining whether mothers were given meaningful information about labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery or left unprepared
Mental Health Screenings
Tracking when and if mothers were screened for PPD, PPA, or PTSD, or if mental health was overlooked entirely
Experiences
with Providers
From supportive care to dismissive encounters, mothers’ voices reveal how interactions shape recovery and long-term trust in the healthcare system
Postpartum Complications
Conditions such as postpartum preeclampsia and infection remain leading causes of illness and death, yet they are often underdiagnosed or overlooked
Get Involved
The Postpartum Data Project is built on the voices of mothers, families, and healthcare providers. Whether by sharing your story, contributing data, or supporting this work, you can help shine a light on the realities of postpartum care and push for change that saves lives.
