Expecting families are especially anxious right now. Learn how our maternity team is keeping you safe.

Our team discusses the benefits of Count the Kicks, an evidence based, international stillbirth prevention program that helps expectant parents get to know their baby’s normal movement patterns starting in the third trimester of pregnancy (or earlier for multiples or if high risk).

There's a wide variety of people who will help you safely welcome your baby into the world. A midwife explains the key players and their role in your labor and delivery team.

Our goal as anesthesiologists is to both alleviate pain and to keep the patient and baby safe. We need to anticipate any complications that could jeopardize the safety of the patient and baby on the day of delivery. We also want patients to be aware of these potential challenges in advance so they are not caught by surprise if something changes during delivery.

As part of Down Syndrome Awareness Month, local families share their experiences with the compassionate, expert team in South Shore Health's Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) Program.
