Many interventions given at home by non professionals can lead to fatal consequences for expectant mums. Its important that we pay attention to professional help or guidance during pregnancy. A few examples have been listed below

1. Do not manipulate her abdomen in any way. If she has a breech presentation, excercise can help at times. Try to turn the baby at home can lead to bleeding and lose of the baby

2.Do not try to keep her at home if she is bleeding or manage it at home. It can lead to her death if its not managed properly

3.Do not give her unprescribed medications whether it is orthodox medicine or traditional medicine. You will never know how it will affect her and her unborn child. If she is ill report to the hospital

4. Do not prevent her from assessing medical and professional care. This can be life saving. A support person should rather be encouraging. Do not take the role of a doctor or midwife. This can be fatal to her

5.Do not beat or abuse a pregnant woman. Dont expect too much. Rather give her a helping hand when need be.
