It has a critical role in ensuring a healthy pregnancy and the health of the mother and her child. It involves monitoring the health of both the mother and the fetus, providing information and support, and delivering appropriate care throughout the pregnancy. Maternal health care can include prenatal testing and screening, nutritional counseling, and labor and delivery preparation.
