Abstract: Maternal health is the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Good care during pregnancy is important for the health of the mother and the development of the unborn baby. Ideally, the care should begin soon after conception and continue throughout pregnancy. It is an important aspect for the development of any country, in terms of increasing equity & reducing poverty. According to the World Health Organization, more than 810 women die every day from complications of pregnancy and childbirth. So each and every mother should have access to quality healthcare during their pregnancy and childbirth. In various Unani texts, the comprehensive explanation of Peri Natal and Post Natal Care is mentioned under the heading of “Tadabeer-i- Wiladat”. In this paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the strength of Unani medicine in Peri natal care and post natal care.
