Prenatal care is necessary for soon-to-be-moms who want to ensure their child’s health. This assists pregnant women in their journey to motherhood, so they can be physically and psychologically ready to give birth.

Multivitamins are beneficial to health at all points in your life, but there are times when they are just downright essential and pregnancy is one of them. Pregnant women need up to 50 percent more vitamins each day than the average adult. Calcium, iron, and folic acid are a few of the most important vitamins during pregnancy.

We’ve all heard that taking calcium gives us strong bones. Calcium is actually stored in the bones themselves to strengthen them. Your baby needs to ge

Many pregnant women get intense cravings, and studies show that the number one craving is for chocolate. You might be avoiding chocolate because it is “bad for you” or “bad for the baby.” However, chocolate is actually proving to have unexpected health benefits, and these benefits may be doubly important for pregnant women and the development of healthy babies.

We know that chocolate makes us naturally happier. It releases endorphins which act to dull pain and just make us generally feel better. It also stimulates the brain and body. Recent research has found that chocolate can also have positive effects on the fetus. The infants whose mothers ate chocolate regularly throughout pregnancy were found more inclined to smiling, laughter, and were more

Do you believe in prenatal memory? Some people think that children do not have prenatal memory. I am puzzled about it initially. I started to read books written by Dr. Makoto Shichida and checked with my children about this topic. Those of you not familiar with the latest study on prenatal memory now have at least a basic understanding. But there is more to come.

I communicated with my first son when he was only a 7 months old fetus. I talked to him, read books and sang to him daily. When he was 5 years ago, he was able to recall the experience in the womb, sharing with me that it was dark inside and what it was like playing with the water inside my womb. I asked him, “What did you hear in my womb when you were an unborn baby?” He said that he could hear sound

You feel your body is changing. You feel dizzy in the morning. You get sick in the afternoon. You crave for specific food. You missed your period. If you feel all these, then, congratulations! You could be pregnant.

For some prenatal patients this is compounded by the fact that their prenatal care will be their first real encounter with the medical system. It is crucial that this introduction to the health care system works collaboratively to facilitate a safe and healthy pregnancy.

Not infrequently, medical information may need to

If used properly, ultrasound technology can be an invaluable diagnostic tool for monitoring the growth and development of the baby. But ultrasounds are also being used for prenatal portraits, an unborn baby’s first photograph, in a controversial and possibly unlawful practice.

Although using ultrasound technology is generally considered to be safe, it’s not without some risks because the energy from the ultrasound could theoretically affect the unborn child. The prenatal portraits entail high intensities of ultrasound and long times of exposure.

A chain of ultrasound imaging centers called Fetal Fotos describes “your ultrasound experience” on its website as follows: “Imagine the bonding that occurs when you first see your unborn child.
