The document discusses three medical advances: in-vitro fertilization, which helps women become pregnant by fertilizing an egg outside of the body; caesarean section, the surgical delivery of a baby through incisions in the mother's abdomen and uterus, which has more risks than vaginal birth; and amniocentesis, a test that removes fluid from around the baby in the womb to check for genetic abnormalities and involves an ultrasound but does not require a hospital stay.

2. In vitro fertilization
• In vitro fertilization is the most common and most effective type
of assisted reproductive technology to help women become
pregnant.

3. CAESAREAN SECTION
• Caesarean section is the surgical delivery of a baby that involves
making incisions in the mother's abdominal wall and uterus. Generally
considered safe, C-sections do have more risks than vaginal births.
Plus, you can come home sooner and recover quicker after a vaginal
delivery.

4. AMIOCENTESIS
– Amniocentesis removes a small amount of fluid from the sac
around the baby in the womb (uterus). It is most often done in a
doctor's office or medical center. You do not need to stay in the
hospital. You will have a pregnancy ultrasound. This helps your
health care provider see where the baby is in your womb.
