Healthy Baby Having a baby can be the experience of a lifetime. That's why we are pleased to provide you with the comprehensive services of the Perinatal Program. No period of your life is likely to be more important than the nine months of pregnancy. The way you take care of yourself during pregnancy will directly affect your baby's health.
Some expectant mothers experience medical problems during pregnancy.
The sooner problems are identified, the more successfully they can be treated. Research through the American College of Obstertrics and Gynecology has proven that habits such as the use of alcohol or the use of street drugs can be harmful to the unborn baby as well as to the mother. Many babies from these pregnancies are born too small and too soon, leaving them at risk for serious health problems. The program is designed to help you take care of yourself and your baby. It also identifies potential problems associated with pregnancy.
