| Prenatal Care Prenatal Care is the care you get while you are pregnant. This care can be provided by a doctor or other health care professionals. The goal of prenatal care is to monitor the progress of a pregnancy and to identity potential problems before they become serious for either mom or baby. All mothers benefit from prenatal care. Women who see a health care provider regularly during preg- nancy have healthier babies, are less likely to deliver prematurely, and less likely to have other serious problems related to pregnancy. Coos County Family Health Services offers a team of health care pro-fessionals who will help you through the progress of your pregnancy and after your delivery. During prenatal visits, our health care team will: • Teach you about pregnancy and plan for delivery • Monitor any medical conditions you may have • Test for problems with the baby • Refer you to services such as a support group, WIC program, and childbirth education classes. As soon as you think that you are pregnant, call your health care provider to find out when you should come in for your first prenatal care appointment. During your pregnancy make sure you attend all the of your prenatal care appointments. A donation of $1,000 ensures that one baby will have a healthy experience in the womb. |
