Sculpture of Alison Lapper Pregnant, Fourth Plinth, Trafalgar Square, London
Image by nikoretro
From Wiki: The fourth plinth on the northwest corner of Trafalgar Square, designed by Sir Charles Barry and built in 1841, was intended to hold an equestrian statue of William IV, but remained empty due to insufficient funds. Later, agreement could not be reached over which monarch or military hero to place there.
In 1999, the Royal Society of Arts conceived the Fourth Plinth Project, which temporarily occupied the plinth with a succession of works commissioned from contemporary artists.
This work is by Marc Quinn of Alison Lapper Pregnant (unveiled 15 September 2005) – a 3.6-m, 13-t marble torso-bust of Alison Lapper, an artist who was born with no arms and shortened legs due to a condition called phocomelia.

Save the Children USA has a program called "Survive ‘Till Five". Between pregnancy and the age of five is the most vulnerable time where you have early infant and child mortality.
Save the Children hopes to change this with a series of medical and education programs designed to ensure that children survive until age five and beyond.
This photo was taken at a medical facility funded by Save the Children USA. Here a nurse is checking up on a pregnant woman. Out of cultural sensitivity and respect, this checkup is done by a female nurse.
