Prenatal Counseling

What is prenatal counseling?

Prenatal counseling provides guidance to women and their families about pregnancy care, nutrition, vitamins, physical activity, medications, vaccinations, medical tests, and warning signs. It also helps prepare for pregnancy, childbirth, and the baby's first care.

When should prenatal counseling be started?

Ideally, guidance should begin before pregnancy or during the first weeks of pregnancy. Follow-up appointments help monitor the pregnancy, identify risk factors, and provide recommendations appropriate for each stage.

Who provides prenatal counseling?

Prenatal counseling can be provided by an obstetrician-gynecologist, who evaluates the mother's health and the progress of the pregnancy and provides guidance on recommended care and checkups. Other healthcare professionals may be involved depending on individual needs.
