Navigating a high-risk pregnancy can feel overwhelming, but having the right information can make all the difference. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions to help you feel informed and prepared throughout your journey.
A high-risk pregnancy is one where the health of the mother, baby, or both is at greater risk of complications, requiring specialized care and closer monitoring.
Common causes include pre-existing conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, pregnancy complications such as gestational diabetes, advanced maternal age, carrying multiples, or a history of complications.
Our high-risk gynecologists and specialists provide comprehensive prenatal care, including personalized monitoring, screenings, and treatment plans.
The frequency of visits depends on your specific condition, but high-risk pregnancies often require more frequent monitoring and follow-ups.
Tests to ensure the health of both mother and baby may include ultrasounds, glucose screenings, blood pressure monitoring, and genetic testing.
While many high-risk pregnancies result in healthy, natural births, your care team will work with you to determine the safest delivery plan based on your circumstances.
