One of the primary goals of perinatal education is to empower parents with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions throughout the pregnancy and childbirth process. Pregnancy is a time of rapid change, and understanding these changes helps parents feel more in control and less anxious. Education about the stages of fetal development, the physiological changes in the mother's body, and the potential challenges that may arise can alleviate fears and provide a sense of preparedness. Moreover, perinatal education helps parents understand the importance of prenatal care, including regular checkups, screenings, and tests that monitor the health of both the mother and the baby. This knowledge encourages expectant parents to be proactive in seeking medical care and adhering to recommendations, thereby reducing the risk of complications.
