PREGNANCY Care for Clients

  • Our prenatal care offers you the possibility of learning about the changes your body goes through as pregnancy advances. Prenatal care plays an important role in preventing and detecting problems which can arise in pregnancy.
  • Our care includes the monitoring of fetal growth, heart rate and position, urinalysis, blood pressure, and the general health of mother and baby. We can provide counselling and advice on nutrition, exercise, and the social and emotional aspects of pregnancy.
  • We expect to see clients at least once a month until the 28th week of pregnancy, every 2nd week until the 36th week, and once a week thereafter. We request that you obtain records of your previous birth(s) from the midwife or physician who provided your care. If you have been seen by another caregiver before you came to our practice, we request a copy of your records.

Home Visit
Before the birth your first on-call midwife will visit your home to become familiar with the location, to meet others who are expected to be present at the labour or birth, and to answer any questions that anyone attending the birth may have.
 
Lending library
All clients of Community Midwives of Brantford are welcome to use our lending library.
We request that you take a maximum of two books at one time and return them at your next visit, or as soon as you have finished reading them.
There are sign-out cards in the front cover of some of our more rare and treasured books. Please enter pregnant client’s name and the date, and leave the card on the front desk for staff. Please leave books that are being returned on the front desk
​
*Please note – your name will be visible on the sign-out card to future clients borrowing the same book. If you would prefer to sign out the book confidentially ask staff for your “Client ID number” to use in lieu of your name.
