ONE SHOT. TWO LIVES PROTECTED. 🤰🏽👶🏽 Did you know the tetanus shot in pregnancy protects BOTH mother and baby? Tetanus infection during delivery can be life-threatening — but it is completely preventable with vaccination. During antenatal care, you’ll receive the tetanus vaccine (TT or Td). It helps your body produce protective antibodies that cross the placenta and shield your baby after birth. ✔ Safe in pregnancy ✔ Recommended worldwide ✔ Saves newborn lives Supported globally by the World Health Organization and implemented in Nigeria through the National Primary Health Care Development Agency — because safe motherhood matters. Don’t skip your antenatal vaccines. Protection is powerful. Prevention is love. 💛 ⸻ #PregnancyCare #AntenatalCare #SafeMotherhood #MaternalHealth #HealthyPregnancy #TetanusVaccine #NeonatalHealth #MomAndBaby #EveryWomanHealth #NaijaMoms #PregnancyEducation #ProtectYourBaby

A chemical pregnancy is an early pregnancy loss that happens shortly after implantation, often before an ultrasound can detect a baby. Many women may only realize it through a late period or an early positive test that later becomes negative. It’s important to know that a chemical pregnancy is common, and in most cases, it does not mean there is a problem with future fertility. For many women, it’s simply the body recognizing that the pregnancy was not developing as expected. If you or someone you know has experienced this, be gentle with yourself. Grief, confusion, or even relief — all feelings are valid. Healing takes time, and hope is still very much possible. Let’s create more awareness, less silence, and more support for women walking this journey. 🤍 #ChemicalPregnancy #EarlyPregnancyLoss #WomensHealthAwareness #TTCJourney #TryingToConceive #PregnancyAwareness #ReproductiveHealth #YouAreNotAlone #HealingJourney #MotherhoodSupport #FertilityAwareness #EveryWomanHealth

CVS: Knowing Your Baby’s Genotype Before Birth Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) is a prenatal test that helps parents know their baby’s genotype early in pregnancy. It is usually done in the first trimester and can help detect conditions like sickle cell disease before birth. For families with a history of genetic conditions, CVS provides early information that supports informed decisions, proper medical planning, and emotional preparation. Genetic counseling before and after testing is very important to help parents understand the results and available options. Every pregnancy journey is unique — knowledge empowers parents to prepare, plan, and care better for both mother and baby. #CVS #GenotypeAwareness #SickleCellAwareness #PrenatalTesting #AntenatalCare #EveryWomanHealth #PregnancyEducation #HealthyPregnancy #GeneticTesting #MaternalHealth #TTCJourney #PregnancySupport #NigeriaMoms #MedicalEducation #KnowYourGenotype
