Abstract

Pregnancy is the most exciting period of expectation and fulfilment in a woman's life and it is unique natural gift to women folk. It is a period of great anabolic activities, when the most rapid rate of growth in human development takes place in the fetus at the expense of the mother. The birth of a normal infant is the expectation of the parent when pregnancy is considered. However, there is a threat to the fulfilment of the prospective parents' dreams, resulting from the very dangerous disorders that contribute to unhealthy babies.
