Congratulations!

Having a baby is an exciting time in your life and we are thrilled to be a part of it. To make your experience the best possible, we are here to help you along the way. The comfort and safety of you and your baby is our number one priority.

Planning Ahead

Nine months flies by. To make it easier to keep track of it all, we’ve highlighted key information to make sure you are covered. For example, in your first trimester, select an OB-GYN or midwife. During your second trimester, we encourage you to contact your hospital’s maternity care coordinator so that your early questions can be answered and you can prepare for your birth. It is also the perfect time to enroll in childbirth and breastfeeding classes. And, in your third trimester, if you haven’t had a tour yet, you can sign up so you’ll be prepared for the big day! Choosing your doctor, making your birthing plans and choosing your child’s doctor are all important decisions. Let the journey begin!

Car Seat Safety

By law, you must have a car seat to take your baby home in. Be sure you know how to use the car seat, and practice installing it in your car.

We recommend checking with your local fire department for a car seat inspection before your baby is born. They can check to make sure your seat is properly installed. 

You watch a video at healthychildren.org for more instruction on how to install a car seat.

Baby’s First Year

Nothing quite compares to the joy of holding your new bundle and the variety of emotions and needs that come after. Don’t miss out on resources to make that first year the best ever including an infancy e-newsletter, breastfeeding support, the period of purple crying information and more.
