# БезРаздяла | “The voice heals children” – Day for premature babies in Bulgaria
On November 17, we celebrate for the tenth consecutive year the Day of Premature Children in Bulgaria, at the initiative of the Foundation “Our Premature Children”.
On November 17, the Foundation launched an emotional initiative aimed at connecting parents and their premature babies and newborns in need of hospital treatment. In the shadow of the pandemic crisis, over the past two years, families’ access to neonatology units has been severely restricted, and their babies are recovering without contact with their parents. The initiative entitled #WithoutSeparation | The Voice Heals, The family to broadcast an audio message to their babies to make them feel the love and warmth in their parents’ words, with the help of medical teams.
Despite the hopes, the births in our country do not increase during the pandemic. They were 53,968 during the year against 54,762 in …
World Prematurity Day is a day to focus on these smallest and most struggling children, many of whom, despite all the difficulties they face, still survive and, moreover, grow up as healthy children. But in order to reduce the number of premature births, to reduce the number of deaths of the average shortage of babies, and to reduce the percentage of institutions among premature babies, it is necessary to talk about the problems and people, as well as specialists to be the most informed.
More than 15 million babies are born prematurely each year (according to 2012 data), and in Europe alone there are about 500,000. More than 1 million babies die each year as a result of premature births as a result. In Bulgaria, statistics are also alarming – over 6,000 babies are born too early each year. Premature babies represent the largest group of patients among children, and their number continues to grow. It is even more worrying that this is happening against the background of the declining trend in the total number of births. The number of premature babies with extremely low weight is constantly increasing – less than 1000 gr. The care of the youngest and most fragile patients amounts to more than 26 billion euros a year. In Bulgaria, caring for a premature baby can reach 1000-2000 BGN per day.
