To check the growth and development of the baby . It is important because it help to determine any form of deformity or infection that might have infected the baby.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

Firstly we must give an understanding of what Prenatal care means. It is simply the period at which a pregnant woman often visits the medical officers depending on the check to be carried upon her mostly during the first eight weeks of pregnancy. The medical personnel helps to check the condition and all forms of risk that might have attached to the pregnancy. Dr. Vatannia point of views on what to be discussed include:

The physician asks about the medical history of the pregnant woman family

Physical check on the body.

History of previous pregnancy and risk that might involve.

B.

Ultrasound is a form of scan carried out on pregnant women during the prenatal period. It is used do check the health status and the growth of the baby. This scan is vital to the mother and the baby because it helps to identify any form of deformity or abnormality that might have infected the baby's growth.

This scan is of great importance because it helps to detect or diagnose causes of some side effects through the ultrasound waves which explain this process through pictures displayed.

Ultrasound can also be used to check the sex of the baby
