This program is filled with valuable information to help answer some of your questions about pregnancy. We’ll also help familiarize you with what's going on in your body, and your baby's developing body as well!
The program is divided into four separate modules, one for each trimester, plus a postpartum section. Each module provides specific information about what you may be experiencing physically, what you can expect from your healthcare team, and how to understand your test results. Animation will show you how your baby should be developing during each stage of your pregnancy. You’ll find information about diet, exercise, recommended lifestyle adjustments, and preplanning. There’s a comprehensive section about infant feeding, and you can watch videos of real parents as they share their experiences about pregnancy, childbirth, and being a new parent.
