By having a healthy pregnancy, you’re more likely to have a healthy childbirth. Pregnancy care includes pre-pregnancy, antenatal (prenatal), and postpartum (postnatal) health care for pregnant women.
It includes treatment and education to ensure a healthy preconception, pregnancy, labor, and birth of the child.
Pregnancy care helps promote a healthy birth. A pre-pregnancy screening visit will help women take a step towards a healthy pregnancy before they conceive.
Prenatal care is an important part of maintaining good health during pregnancy. Your doctor, nurse, or midwife will check your future baby’s development and conduct regular checkups to identify and prevent possible problems. These routine check-ups are also a good time to learn how to ease your discomfort and ask other questions about your pregnancy and future baby birth. It reduces the risk of fetal and infant complications.
It also holds importance during childbirth and after pregnancy. The most important factor in avoiding complications during pregnancy and after childbirth is quality antenatal and postnatal care. In order to protect the health of mothers and children before and after childbirth, Dr. Manisha Risbud from Srujan Maternity & Nursing Home, Pune,, provides care services and support that meet the needs of each woman.
During the initial consultation, Dr. Manisha Risbud will discuss your medical history, personal and familial health concerns, and any previous pregnancies. This will help Dr. Manisha develop a personalized plan for your pregnancy care.
Here’s a look at what might be covered during your consultation at Srujan Maternity & Nursing Home, Pune:
Medical history:
Medical history can affect your pregnancy outcome and also provides detailed information about potential complications. You may be asked about your personal and family medical records, previous pregnancies or miscarriages, and your living habits.
Also, be ready to answer the following questions:
If you’ve had a baby, details about your previous pregnancy can help determine your pregnancy history.
Current pregnancy parameters: A series of lab tests will give important clues about your pregnancy. Two main sets of tests will be performed: blood tests to determine blood type, hemoglobin, thyroid and vitamins, and urine tests to measure sugar and protein levels.
Gynecological examination: Your height, weight, and blood pressure will be part of your physical assessment. A pelvic exam may then be performed to evaluate the health of the cervix, vagina, uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes.
Due date: Pregnancy usually lasts 40 weeks from the first day of your last period, but every baby is different, and you can deliver anytime between 37 and 42 weeks.
A few women give birth on their due date, so the two weeks before and after the due date should be considered a priority. An ultrasound will confirm your due date by checking the size of your baby.
Once your due date has been determined, follow-up visits will refer to your baby’s size and progress from that date.

Dr. Manisha Risbud will discuss what to expect when you’re pregnant, prepare for delivery and teach you basic skills to care for your baby. You may need frequent visits and special care if your pregnancy is considered high-risk due to age or your condition.
While most pregnancy care covers the nine months of pregnancy, postpartum care is also important. The postpartum period lasts six to eight weeks and begins soon after the baby is born.
During this time, a mother goes through many physical and emotional changes as she learns to care for her newborn. Postpartum care includes rest, nutrition, and proper vaginal care:
Rest is important for new mothers who need to recover. To avoid getting too tired as a new mom, you may need: to sleep while your baby sleeps, keep your bed near your baby’s crib to facilitate nighttime feeding, allow someone else to feed your baby, and bottle-feeding while you sleep.
Eating during the postpartum period is important because of the changes your body goes through during pregnancy and delivery. The weight you gain during pregnancy helps ensure you have enough food to feed your baby. However, it would help if you continued to eat healthily after giving birth.
Experts recommend that nursing mothers eat when hungry. Avoid high-fat snacks. Focus on eating low-fat foods with a balance of protein, carbohydrates, fruits, and vegetables, and drink plenty of water.
New mothers should take care of their vaginas, an essential part of their postpartum care.
You may experience the following in the first few days after giving birth:
Make an appointment with Dr. Manisha Risbud about six weeks after giving birth to discuss your symptoms and receive appropriate treatment. You should abstain from sex for four to six weeks after giving birth to give the vagina time to heal.
The cost of pregnancy care varies depending on insurance coverage and the specific services needed during the pregnancy. Dr. Manisha Risbud will go through the financial details, including estimated costs and insurance coverage, during the initial consultation.
