Antenatal Care

Importance of Early Antenatal Visits
Antenatal care is essential for ensuring the health and safety of both mother and baby during pregnancy. Early visits help confirm pregnancy, estimate due date, and identify any risks or health conditions that may need attention. Routine check-ups are crucial throughout all stages of pregnancy.

Monitoring Health and Development
During antenatal visits, doctors monitor the baby’s growth, mother’s weight, blood pressure, and overall health. Tests like blood work and ultrasound scans are conducted to detect complications early. Nutritional guidance, supplements, and vaccinations are also part of comprehensive pregnancy care.

Education and Emotional Support
Antenatal care includes educating expectant mothers about labor, delivery, and newborn care. It also addresses emotional well-being, mental health, and lifestyle adjustments during pregnancy. A supportive environment helps build confidence and prepares the mother for a safe and healthy childbirth experience.
