WHAT TO EXPECT IN A PRENATAL VISIT

Willow Midwives recommends that you make an appointment for your first prenatal visit early in your pregnancy (by about 8-12 weeks from your first day of your last period). If you already started prenatal care, you may transfer your prenatal care with Willow any time during your pregnancy. Whether you have been pregnant in the past, or not, we can help you maximize your health and comfort during any stage of your pregnancy. During your prenatal appointments, we will monitor your physical and emotional health, your baby’s progress, and address any concerns you have along the way.

As your pregnancy progresses, we will offer appropriate tests, classes, tours and referrals for childbirth education. It is also very important to go over a number of relevant topics, such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercise, travel, having sex during pregnancy, and what types of physical changes to expect.

A pregnant body has a lot of adapting to do and sometimes symptoms accompany those changes.  We are experts in normal pregnancy. Sometimes symptoms that are intense are harmless and sometimes symptoms that are mild can be medically significant. We encourage phone calls and access to us through the medical record portal and our 24/7 Midwife Call line.

Willow Midwives offers prenatal genetic testing to help you and your family prepare for parenthood.
