Enrichment · Life Skills

Every question asked.
Every answer kept.

Prenatal visits are short, and the question that kept you up at night is easy to forget in the room. Write questions down as they come, mark the ones to ask first, and type the answers beside them before you leave. The organizer carries unanswered questions forward and keeps the next steps in one place. It records what you ask; it does not give medical advice.

A common pattern for an uncomplicated pregnancy, from ACOG patient education. Your provider may see you more often.

Urgent warning signs

The CDC’s Hear Her campaign lists signs that need care right away during pregnancy and in the year after: a headache that will not go away or gets worse, dizziness or fainting, vision changes, a fever of 100.4°F or higher, extreme swelling of the hands or face, trouble breathing, chest pain or a fast heartbeat, severe belly pain, severe nausea and vomiting, the baby’s movement stopping or slowing, vaginal bleeding or fluid leaking, and thoughts of harming yourself or your baby. Call 911 or get emergency care, and say you are pregnant or recently pregnant.

Mood matters too

Feeling low, anxious or numb during pregnancy is common and treatable. The National Maternal Mental Health Hotline, 1-833-852-6262 (1-833-TLC-MAMA), is free and confidential by call or text, every hour of every day, in English and Spanish. Tell your provider too; screening for depression is part of routine prenatal care.
