About Pregnancy Risk
The condition of pregnancy is not without risk to the mother. Though many risks can be avoided or reduced by avoiding smoking and drinking and drugs, as well as eating well, there are others that cannot be affected by such choices. These include anemia, urinary tract infections, diabetes, and other conditions. It is important to be under a doctor's care as soon as pregnancy begins.
