Obstetrics
High-risk pregnancy care
Specialist follow-up when you or your baby need extra monitoring.
What it is
Some pregnancies need closer care because of the mother's health, a problem in a previous pregnancy, or a concern about the baby. Our maternal-fetal medicine team plans and coordinates this care.
Who it's for
Women with high blood pressure, diabetes, heart or kidney disease, twins, previous stillbirth or preterm birth, previous cesarean sections, or a baby with a growth or development concern.
What to expect
- A personalised plan for visits and tests
- Detailed ultrasound and fetal monitoring
- Coordination with physicians, anesthetists and the neonatal team
- Planning the safest time and way to give birth
Common questions
Does 'high-risk' mean something will go wrong?
