Prenatal Health

I think that the most important aspects of prenatal healthcare for mom and baby is confidence and less stress. Studies have shown that over half of pregnant women dislike their appearance.

40% do love their body and that acceptance is not only good for women's mental health, it's good for their babies. Research has shown a clear relationship between infant birth weight and maternal weight gain, and most women are now encouraged to gain at least 24 pounds.
