Expectant mothers were handed brochures of vital information as well as gift bags of handy items they would need during and after pregnancy.
“We realised most pregnant mothers do not have enough information on how to take care of themselves while they are pregnant,” said Legae spokesperson Tumi Mphake.
“There are dangers and signs to look for and after they give birth they must also know how to take care of their little bundles of joy.”
“I am grateful to the clinic,” said expectant mother Mary-Jane Putuka of Soshanguve Block UU. “I benefited a lot from all these sessions.”
Mphake told Rekord that Legae was happy with the turnout.
“We look forward to hosting similar sessions around Soshanguve for the remainder of February,” she said.
