What is Prenatal Care?
Prenatal care encompasses a range of medical services and support designed to optimize the health and well-being of you and your baby throughout pregnancy, spanning the germinal, embryonic, and fetal stages.
Prenatal care involves monitoring maternal health indicators such as blood pressure, protein levels, and fetal development milestones. Your OB/GYN or Certified Nurse Midwife will also provide guidance on nutrition, exercise, and prenatal vitamins. As your pregnancy progresses, you’ll have the opportunity to explore your childbirth options, enroll in prenatal classes and explore mental health resources to address the emotional aspects of pregnancy. With regular appointments and personalized care plans, prenatal care at Inspira sets the foundation for a healthy pregnancy and childbirth experience.
