A newborn's first day is the most dangerous day of his/her life and a lot of these deaths can be avoided if more health safety measures are implemented, says Save The Children.

The data come from the world's first global analysis of the prevalence of newborns dying the first day they are born. 

In addition to these findings the report also includes data about which country is the best place to be a mother. The index ranked the nations according to their education, incomes, and overall female political representation. 

Finland ranked as the best country to be a mother with the Republic of the Congo being the worst.
