Detection during antenatal care is very helpful in preparation for risk control (Manuaba, 2007). Moreover, pregnant women who do not perform antenatal care, it will not be known whether the pregnancy is going well or experiencing high risk conditions and obstetric complications that can endanger the life of the mother and her fetus.
