Maintaining a healthy lifestyle by eating sensibly and staying physically active during your pregnancy will help you prepare. For additional help, we offer a Labor and Breastfeeding class for $30 per couple, and a Sibling class for $20 per family.
Pregnancy Resources
Even before you become pregnant, your health matters to your future baby. Two tips: Address any medical problems before becoming pregnant, then get regular prenatal care.
The hormones of pregnancy bring on a number of changes, from nausea to fatigue. Your growing, developing baby, too, has a profound effect.
You need to take care of yourself for a new reason. Your health can affect your baby's growth. Focus on your health for two reasons now, not one.
This often is called the "golden trimester." You're starting to show. And you're starting to glow. Use this time to have fun with your partner, your friends, and your family.
Visits with your health care provider will be biweekly, then weekly. Ask now about labor, childbirth, the warning signs of preterm labor, and when to call your provider.
Several tests and procedures are available to help monitor you and your developing baby.
