Obstetrics
Planning for a baby can be one of the most exciting – and nerve-racking – times
of your life. As an expectant mother, you are probably full of questions, and
we are happy to answer them and help you on to your next stage of life – mom.
Routine Obstetrics
Even with a routine pregnancy, the changes in your body can be alarming. There
is so much to learn: what foods you should steer clear of, if you can stick with
your normal exercise program, and
what’s up with the all-day "morning" sickness! We can help answer those questions, and the hundreds of others you will undoubtedly
have during pregnancy. We also have an in-office ultrasound to check your baby’s
growth and take those all-important first pictures.
While some practices require obstetric patients to rotate between all the physicians
in the practice, at Carolina Women's Health you can continue to see the doctor
or doctors of your choice throughout your entire pregnancy.
Once you have chosen your physician, we partner with you to develop a labor and
delivery plan, taking your preferences into account. Our physicians do everything
in their power to ensure that your and your baby’s health and wellbeing are the
top priority during labor and delivery and that you and your new little one go
home healthy and happy.
High-Risk Obstetrics
Sometimes pregnancy is not as smooth as we hope. There often are complications
during pregnancy, like gestational diabetes, hypertension, placenta previa and
low amniotic fluid, among others. During these scary times, you need expert care
and advice. The physicians at Carolina Women’s Health are experienced and highly
trained in high-risk obstetrics and will guide you every step of the way.
We also offer fetal diagnostic services, genetic disorder counseling and miscarriage-risk
intervention to all of our obstetric patients.
