Prenatal Care
PREPARE FOR YOUR BIRTH
Masden Midwifery believes that a great natural birth starts with individualized prenatal care. The Initial Visit is usually 2 hours. Regular visits are every 4 weeks until 28 weeks, every 2 weeks until 35weeks, and every week from 36 weeks until delivery. The regular visits are usually 1hr. Informed consent is provided and you are encouraged to ask questions and address all of your concerns surrounding birth.
HEALTHY PRENATALS
We listen to you and baby, too! At each prenatal both mother and baby will have a checkup and we can work together to address any concerns or needs that arise in pregnancy.
Nutrition is the foundation of a healthy pregnancy and so nutritional assessments are done at each visit to maintain a healthy, growing baby.
