Hello there.
A few things would be
1. Proper diet, i.e., intake of more calories than usual. So that there should be atleast 11 kgs of weight gain over the period of your pregnancy.
2. Minimum three visits to a obstetrician and 3 scans are required, one visit per trimester.
3. Atleast 100 days of iron and folic acid supplementation.
4. 3 doses of TT injections.
5. Consult your doctor as soon as you see certain symptoms like bleeding, pain abdomen etc.
All the best.
Regards
