• How to take care of yourself during your pregnancy
• How often you will need to visit the OB clinic
• Which prenatal tests are available and when
• How to choose a provider who will take care of you and your baby throughout your pregnancy

You’ll be asked to provide information about your:

• Medical history
• Previous pregnancies
• Family history

You will also:

• Take blood and urine tests
• Receive educational handouts and materials that you can take home and review with your partner and family
• Meet with a registered nurse (RN). The RN will answer any questions you may have and help you schedule your first appointment with an obstetrics provider.
