Surat: Fortune Nutrition Program is the hallmark of safe motherhood

India is the first country in the world where one day of the year is dedicated for the safety of women. April 11 is celebrated as National Safe Motherhood Day i.e. National Safe Motherhood Day. Today we will talk about the nutrition program of Safe Motherhood nutritionist Fortune. In this, all the activities from the investigation of pregnant women to the maintenance of the family have been included.

The surprising thing is that all these efforts are being done by Adani Foundation in remote areas. Pregnancy and motherhood are the most beautiful phases of a woman’s life, but they can also be difficult if not taken care of in time.

Wahidaben Jaimalbhai Vasava of Narmada district lost her first child to miscarriage when she was pregnant last year. “I had a painful miscarriage because of sickle cell anemia,” says Wahidaben. “When I found out I was pregnant, I was worried about the baby and my health.”

Many rural women like Waheedaben go through a similar ordeal. This concern is often faced by pregnant women. This results in a lack of awareness about what to do before, during and after childbirth. An outcome-oriented dialogue about this National Safe Motherhood Day is celebrated every year on 11th April in India.

The Fortune Suposhan – An initiative of Adani Wilmar and operated by Adani Foundation in the hinterland of India. The main objective of which is to make families aware about proper diet, nutrition, facilities of government schemes for pregnant women. Waheedaben shares “I am a mother of a 23-month-old healthy baby girl. I will be forever grateful to SuPoshan Sangini Anishaben Vasava for standing by me through my pregnancy. From regular counseling and follow-ups to stress reduction techniques, Anishaben Became Waheeda’s companion during her pregnancy.

Anishaben says, Wahidaben had sickle cell anemia and was losing a lot of weight. Hemoglobin levels had dropped to around 10%, which scared her husband and in-laws. He adds, Adani Foundation supported and counseled Waheedaben and her family during her second pregnancy. These include expert counselling, teaching the family how to cook nutritious meals and stress relief such as pranayama. Guidance was provided on mitigation techniques. When we saw Wahidaben’s child, our happiness knew no bounds.

Over the years many Suposhan Sanginis have been working tirelessly to provide antenatal and postnatal care to young mothers under this initiative. Providing guidance on postnatal care.

Every year more than 3 crore women become mothers in India, out of which more than 45,000 women die during childbirth every year. The global figures for maternal mortality are even higher and are a cause of great concern. Such programs being run for safe motherhood are a boon for many women.
