We prepare the pregnant woman for normal physiological changes, as well as for childbirth, breastfeeding, and the role of parenthood.
The purpose of prenatal consultations is to ensure that you and your baby have the best possible conditions throughout pregnancy and birth. Prenatal care aims to promote health and coping, as well as to detect pregnancy-related complications.
If you wish to have a longer conversation with a midwife about a specific topic, you can schedule a midwife consultation.
With us, you can also book appointments outside the mandatory prenatal consultations.
