For a Healthy Pregnancy Process
In order to have a healthy pregnancy and have a healthy child, a planned and well-monitored pregnancy under the control of a doctor is necessary. It is necessary to be checked by a specialist doctor at least 6-10 times during all pregnancies. At each follow-up, the mother’s weight gain, blood pressure, general health status are examined, as well as the baby’s health, development and determination of whether there is an anomaly are also monitored by ultrasonography.
During pregnancy follow-ups, the mother is asked to make some tests with a certain order. The first thing that needs to be done is to determine the blood types of the expectant mother and father in order to determine whether there is a blood mismatch.
The mother’s blood count is also performed, and in the meantime, the treatment of her anemia, if any, is also arranged. Dec. In addition, the microorganisms that cause Hepatitis, Toxoplasma, Rubella (Rubella) disease in the mother’s blood are searched and necessary measures are taken in their presence. When the pregnant woman is about 15-16 weeks old, a blood test called the ‘Triple test’ is performed to detect ‘Down Syndrome’, which causes a serious intelligence problem. Since diabetes can also occur during pregnancy, it is recommended that all pregnant women take a glucose screening test when they are 28 weeks old. Treatment is arranged according to the results of all these tests.

What is Premature Birth?
