High Risk for Postpartum Complications

a) Women with a BMI below 25
b) Teenagers
c) Primiparous Women
d) Women with a History of Healthy Pregnancies

Answer 1

Postpartum complications are more likely to occur in women with a BMI below 25, teenagers, and primiparous women.

Step-by-step explanation:

Postpartum complications can occur in certain groups of women:

1. Women with a BMI below 25: Higher BMI is associated with an increased risk of postpartum complications such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and cesarean delivery.
2. Teenagers: Teenage mothers may be less capable of coping with the stress of becoming a new parent, and their children have a higher risk of abuse or neglect.
3. Primiparous women: Women who are giving birth for the first time have a higher risk of postpartum complications compared to women who have had previous healthy pregnancies.
