Most doctors thought it was due to carelessness from the mothers but Dr. Helen MacMurchy concluded that it was due to economic factors. A lot of women could only afford to give birth at home and would often skip out on prenatal/doctoral services. This problem decreased in the 1950s for wealthy areas but complications due to childbirth still remain an issue in First Nations Reserves and Northern Canada due to lack of resources. I’ve attached a photo of Dr. Helen MacMurchy.

Now in 2020, pregnancy or parental leave may be up to 61 weeks and you do not have to be a woman nor pregnant. 

-British Columbia was the first Canadian jurisdiction to grant maternity leave to women. Following that was New Brunswick but that was until another 40+ years in 1964.
