The Importance of Prenatal Checkups

Visiting the doctor during your pregnancy is just as important for you as it is for the baby. There are many lifestyle changes you will need to make to accommodate for your pregnancy. Exercising and eating healthy are critical to facilitating a successful birth and your post-delivery recovery. You will also need to learn about what to expect during each trimester of pregnancy, including warning signs for when you should visit the doctor. Our team will make sure you have ample time to discuss this information with a knowledgeable healthcare professional.

Creating Your Birth Plan

Your adoption consultation will work with you to create a birth plan that you feel comfortable with. There are many different ways to give birth, from the standard epidural pain management route to the all-natural tub birth alternatives. This is something you will need to consider as you plan for your labor. We can connect you with experienced prenatal care professionals who can answer your questions about the birthing process and help you create a plan that meets your needs.

The following are some things you need to consider for the birthing process:

• Do you want pain medications?
• Would you prefer an all-natural birth?
• Is there anyone you will want with you during labor and delivery?
• What options do you have for pain management?
• What kind of space would you like to give birth in?
• Is a vaginal birth right for you?
• Under what conditions would you consider a C-section?

You don’t have to make these decisions alone. We can provide you with the resources and information you need to make your birth decisions with confidence. You can consult with the adopting parents on these matters if you wish, but this is your delivery and you have final say in how the birth plan proceeds.
