AB The  American  Academy  of  Pediatrics  and  the  American  College  of  Obstetricians  and  Gynecologists  (2017)  define  prenatal  care  as  “A  comprehensive  antepartum  program  involves  a  coordinated  approach  to  medical  care,  continuous  risk  assessment,  and  psychosocial  support  that  optimally  begins  before  pregnancy  and  extends  throughout  the  postpartum  and  interpregnancy  period.”  As  promulgated  by  John  Ballantyne,  such  care  has  been  a  bedrock  to  improve  pregnancy  outcomes  for  more  than  100  years  (Reiss,  2000).
