This book was developed to help young married girls to understand pregnancy and childbirth, and what to do to take care of themselves and their baby. Save the Children asked many adolescent girls that have already given birth to help develop this guide. Save the Children also asked husbands and mothers-in-law from similar villages to learn of their experiences, feelings and opinions about marriage, pregnancy, childbirth and taking care of a new baby. This guide is divided up into chapters. Each chapter will focus on changes in the body before, during and after pregnancy.
