Treatment Protocols: • Routine physical examinations to monitor maternal health and fetal development. • Ultrasound assessments to observe fetal growth and placental position. • Blood pressure and urine tests to detect preeclampsia or infections. • Nutritional guidance and lifestyle counseling. • Education about labor, delivery, and postpartum care. • Management of any emerging pregnancy-related issues, such as gestational diabetes or preterm labor signs.
