Preconceptional counseling
Obstacle to pre-conception counseling and assessment is of women not knowing, realizing, or understanding the benefits of visiting their physician before trying to become pregnant.
Most women still take for granted the biological aspects of becoming pregnant, and do not consider the value of pre-screening before becoming pregnant. Most women who want and anticipate having a baby are naturally prone to thinking in terms of having a well baby. In the majority of cases, women do not think about having a baby who has any kind of problem.

Pregnancy care
Once you become pregnant, you’ll need to schedule regular healthcare appointments throughout each stage of your pregnancy.
A schedule of visits may involve seeing your doctor:
- every month in the first six months you are pregnant
- every two weeks in the seventh and eighth months you are pregnant
- every week during your ninth month of pregnancy
If your pregnancy is considered high risk because of your age or health conditions, you may require more frequent visits and special care. You may also need to see a doctor who works with high-risk pregnancies.

Normal delivery
Normal delivery is a completely natural delivery of a baby by the mother without any medical intervention.

Antenatal Surveillance
Antenatal fetal surveillance is a field of increasing importance in modern obstetrics, especially as results in perinatal care have recently made dramatic progress. It is an evolving field, and it is no longer acceptable just to wait and see when problems arise in pregnancy.
During the past few decades many studies have shown that antenatal surveillance in unselected populations is of little value. However, high-risk patients benefit from antenatal fetal surveillance, especially women with pregnancy problems associated with intrauterine growth restriction.

NST

When your body gets ready to give birth, the cervix starts to dilate, or widen. But if your cervix is weak or has other problems, it might open too soon. This can lead to premature delivery or a miscarriage.

Postpartum care
The postpartum period refers to the first six weeks after childbirth. This is a joyous time, but it’s also a period of adjustment and healing for mothers. During these weeks, you’ll bond with your baby and you’ll have a post-delivery checkup with your doctor.
Adjusting to everyday life after the birth of a baby has its challenges, especially if you’re a new mother. Although it’s important to care for your baby, you also have to take care of yourself.
