การดูแลตนเองเพื่อป้องกันและลดความเสี่ยงต่อการเจ็บครรภ์คลอดก่อนกำหนด

When a pregnant mother has been receiving prenatal care from a doctor for some time, the estimated due date will be set in advance. However! During pregnancy, the mother should take care of her health and follow the doctor&#8217;s advice to reduce the risk of preterm labor, which can be done as follows:
&nbsp;

of preterm labor
