Antenatal Care

Excellent antenatal care during pregnancy is essential for protecting the health of mothers and their unborn children. Antenatal care can help:

• promote healthy behaviours and parenting skills
• promote positive health outcomes for mother and child throughout the life cycle,
• and provide women with social, emotional, and psychological support they need at this critical time in their lives

WHA is sharing leading work from member services that have had success in delivering strong antenatal care programs that empower and engage women considering their individual social and emotional needs.
