Pregnancy

During pregnancy, your baby’s health is the top priority. That’s why pregnancy problems can be such a concern.

If you have a chronic condition — such as diabetes, epilepsy or depression — understand how your condition could affect your pregnancy and what complications you might face. You might need close monitoring or a change in your treatment plan to help prevent pregnancy problems.

In other cases, pregnancy problems such as gestational diabetes complicate what seemed to be a healthy pregnancy. And for anyone, concerns about miscarriage can be troubling.

Although pregnancy problems might weigh heavily on your mind, remember that there’s much you can do to promote a healthy pregnancy. Count on your health care provider to help you make the best decisions for you and your baby.
