Pregnancy complications

Pregnancy complications refer to health issues that can arise during pregnancy, affecting the mother, the baby, or both. Common complications include gestational diabetes, where blood sugar levels become high; preeclampsia, characterized by high blood pressure and swelling; and premature labor, which happens when labor starts too early. Other issues could include infections, placental problems, or fetal growth restrictions. Many complications can be managed with medical care, but they may lead to serious risks if not addressed. Regular prenatal check-ups are crucial for monitoring health and identifying potential complications early.
