Early health care for you and your baby is very important. As soon as you find out you are pregnant make sure you get medical care. We can help you find medical care through Baby Arizona or through many other community providers.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO GET EARLY PRENATAL CARE?

Both you and your unborn baby will need health support. Important information about your changing body and the development of your baby will be determined during your regular visits.


Your doctor or midwife will look at the size, weight, position and heartbeat of your unborn baby and will help you with your diet, weight gain, any discomforting symptoms you may have and check you for medical conditions that can cause problems with your pregnancy like diabetes and high blood pressure.
