Episode 56: Navigating a High-Risk Pregnancy ft. Dr. Jenny Summers
No high risk pregnancy is the same. Dr. Summers joins me for a conversation about mitigating the risks, working with your OB/GYN and questions to ask.
In this episode, we chat about:
-
What defines a high-risk pregnancy and what places a woman in that category?
-
If you have some of those risks, what should you look for in an OB/GYN to give you proper care and attention?
-
What are some things women can do to mitigate the risks of a high-risk pregnancy?
-
When should a women consider meds, therapy (or both) during or after a high-risk pregnancy?
-
What are the delivery options for pregnancies that are considered high-risk?
-
How can a woman improve the communication between her regular OB and her maternal fetal medicine (MFM) doctor?
-
What's the best advice for a high-risk mama?
