Prenatal and Postpartum Care

Midwifery care is provided to clients experiencing a low to moderate risk pregnancy.

Midwifery care is provided to clients experiencing a low to moderate risk pregnancy. All standard prenatal testing and labs are offered. You can anticipate your care will be scheduled according to the following:

  • 8-10 weeks: Nurse Intake visit
  • 10-14 weeks: Initial visit with Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM)
  • 14-28 weeks: Once monthly CNM visit
  • 28-36 weeks: Bi-monthly CNM visits
  • 36 weeks to birth: Weekly CNM visits

Group prenatal care will be available to clients due towards the end of 2020. Group care will follow a similar schedule as individual care.

Below is an example of the basic tests we recommend. Further tests may be necessary for specific indications.
