# Safe Motherhood: Reducing Risks During Pregnancy
Every pregnancy is unique, but every mother deserves safety. Safe motherhood means early antenatal visits, regular check-ups, and timely intervention.
Common risks:
High blood pressure, diabetes, bleeding, or infections. Recognizing them early saves lives.
Why antenatal care?
It’s not only about ultrasound pictures. It’s about monitoring mother and baby, planning safe delivery, and reducing maternal deaths.
Message:
Pregnancy is a journey, not just a day. With the right care, mothers can feel supported and safe.
