Care: before, during and after pregnancy

Prenatal Care

Getting regular prenatal care is one of the best ways to promote a healthy pregnancy. Prenatal care is more than just health care. It also includes education and counseling about how to handle different aspects of pregnancy, such as nutrition, and physical activity and basic skills for caring for your infant.

Prenatal visits also give you and your family a chance to talk to your health care provider about any questions or concerns you have related to your pregnancy, birth, or parenthood.
