Benefits of participating

Studies show moms who have the opportunity for group prenatal care:

–form networks of education and support for each other
–have better maternal and infant health outcomes in some areas
–are better prepared for labor, delivery, and caring for their infant
–are more satisfied with their prenatal care experience

How does group care work

Groups of 9–12 women meet together for 10-12 sessions during pregnancy and postpartum. ______________________

Each session lasts approximately two hours
______________________

Group starts with the care you are used to when meeting your provider one on one. (vital signs, fetal heart check etc.)
_________________________

The majority of the session is spent in active discussions led by a facilitator. Mothers-to-be take the lead role, talking, teaching and sharing their pregnancy experiences.
