O26: Maternal care for other conditions predominantly related to pregnancy

Maternal care for other conditions predominantly related to pregnancy involves a group of healthcare services provided to expectant mothers experiencing medical conditions that are directly linked to their pregnancy. These conditions could range from physical symptoms such as swelling, severe nausea, or excessive weight gain, to emotional problems like mood swings and anxiety. They can affect not only the health of the expectant mother but also the development and delivery of the baby. Such conditions are usually caused by changes in the body due to pregnancy, but they can also result from the stress and anxiety of expecting a child. These conditions typically evolve as the pregnancy progresses, with some cases becoming more severe close to the childbirth. They primarily affect the reproductive system, but can also have effects on the circulatory system, nervous system, digestive system among others.
