Through routine checkups, your doctor or midwife can monitor your baby&#8217;s growth as well as your blood pressure, weight, and hemoglobin levels, so that conditions such as anemia, preeclampsia, or gestational diabetes can be identified early.<\/p>\n<p>The Indonesian Ministry of Health recommends at least six prenatal checkups during pregnancy: two in the first trimester, one in the second trimester, and three in the third trimester. At least two of these should be done by a doctor, including an ultrasound examination. Bring your KIA (Maternal and Child Health) book to every checkup.<\/p>\n<p>Outside your routine schedule, get checked right away if you experience vaginal bleeding, leaking amniotic fluid, a severe headache with blurred vision, swelling of the face and hands, a high fever, persistent vomiting, or reduced fetal movement. These conditions require prompt medical attention.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t hesitate to ask your doctor or midwife about any concern, however small, during your pregnancy so that you feel calmer and better prepared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Routine prenatal checkups help monitor the health of both mother and baby and detect problems early.
