Eclampsia, a convulsive disorder usually occurring near the end of pregnancy and more often than not occurring with primigravida mothers, represents a serious toxic condition that endangers the life of both the mother and child. Because of this possibility it is very important for women to receive prenatal care. Most obstetricians believe that the causes of eclampsia are unknown. However, midwives usually believe that good nutrition in combination with the reduction of stress prevents eclampsia. Eclampsia can be insidious and can present itself with little warning.
