Maternity & Pregnancy Care
Whether you’re expecting your first child or expanding your family, Center for Family Medicine will be with you every step of the way. At CFM, your pregnancy care is handled by a dedicated doctor who takes the time to explain the entire process and provides a clear, detailed schedule of care tailored to your needs.
How Often Will We See You?
Early in pregnancy, visits are usually about once a month. As your due date gets closer, you’ll come in more often. Your care team will explain your schedule and adjust it to your needs.
If you need to reschedule or have a concern between visits, give us a call.
What to Expect at Your Visits
Prenatal visits are a chance to check on you and your baby—and talk about what’s on your mind. Depending on how far along you are and what you need, we may:
- Check your weight and blood pressure
- Collect a urine sample
- Measure your belly to track your baby’s growth
- Listen to your baby’s heartbeat
- Perform an exam when needed, explaining each step along the way
A Doctor Who Gets to Know You
You’ll have a primary physician who gets to know your health history, questions and preferences. Whenever schedules allow, that doctor will continue caring for you throughout pregnancy and delivery, with support from the rest of our team.
Help With Costs and Coverage
We accept most insurance plans, including Medicaid. Our billing team can help you understand your coverage and work with you on payment options. Labs or tests done at other facilities are billed separately by those facilities.
Here for You and Your Growing Family
From your first prenatal visit through labor and delivery, we’re here to listen, answer questions and care for you and your baby. Whether this is your first pregnancy or you’ve been through it before, your questions are always welcome.
