Thorough prenatal care helps ensure the birth of a healthy baby.
Shortly after you become pregnant, you should begin seeing your physician or midwife on a regular basis. During these prenatal visits, you will undergo certain routine examinations, and you will have an opportunity to discuss with your caregiver any matters that concern either of you. This is also the time to introduce your ideas for a birth plan and begin to work with your physician or midwife in planning your birth experience.
