20. Blood work • -Certain blood work may be ordered. This often includes a CBCwhich can show anemia. CBC includes WBC which can show the presence of infection. Anemia and infection, indicating problems with the woman's overall health at that moment, can both affect a woman's ability to become pregnant at that time as well as affect the stability of the pregnancy and health of the fetus. -Fortunately

21. in the majority of cases both infection and anemia can be treated once the cause is identified. • - Anemia may require ongoing evaluation and iron supplement. • Urine analysis: • -Urine sample or urinalysis can reveal the presence of proteinuria , a possible indicator of infection or kidney disease, or the presence of blood which can indicate a urinary tract infection. Urinalysis might also show the presence of glucose (glycosuria), but women of child bearing age are unlikely to have undiagnosed diabetes (this is separate from gestational diabetes that may occasionally develop during the course of a subsequent pregnancy). • Using the assessment

22. folic acid supplement

23. -If you take folic acid tablets (supplements) in early pregnancy you reduce the risk of having a baby born with a spinal cord problem such as spina bifida. • -This is because the early development of the baby's spinal cord requires a regular, good supply of folic acid. • There is also evidence that folic acid also reduces the risk of having a baby born with a cleft lip and palate, a heart defect (congenital heart disease), and the risk of a premature (preterm or early) labor.

24. -Ideally, start taking folic acid tablets before becoming pregnant. The common advice is to start from the time you plan to become pregnant. • - If the pregnancy is unplanned then start taking folic acid tablets as soon as you know that you are pregnant. 

25. -Continue to take folic acid tablets for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.

26. For most women the dose is 400 micrograms (0.4 mg) a day. • If your risk of having a child with a spinal cord problem is increased then the dose is higher (5 mg a day - you need a prescription for this higher dose). That is, if: • you have had a previously affected pregnancy • you or your partner have a spinal cord defect • you are taking medication for epilepsy • you have celiac disease, diabetes, sickle cell anemia, or thalassaemia.

27. -In addition to folic acid supplements, you should eat a healthy diet when you are pregnant which should include foods rich in folic acid
