High-Risk Pregnancies

High-Risk Pregnancies

Pregnancy is nothing short of a miracle. But, sometimes, you or your baby might require extra care.

In this parental guidance episode, High-Risk Pregnancies, learn about the many factors that can lead to a pregnancy being classified as high-risk.

This type of pregnancy can put you or your baby at increased risk of health problems before, during or after delivery.

What’s more, high-risk pregnancies can take an emotional toll on expectant parents, and a newborn admission to the neonatal ICU further elevates the risk for psychological distress in parents after birth.

Join Jackson Memorial for expert advice on what you need to know to prepare to take care of your baby and yourself, both medically and emotionally, during a high-risk pregnancy.

Yvette Cordova, MD, FACOG, Medical Director of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at Jackson Medical Group and high-risk pregnancy expert will educate you to make the best decisions for yourself and your baby during this process. Additionally, Leah Jayanetti, Vice President of Programs and Education at ICU Baby will be joining the seminar to talk about the importance of the appropriate neonatal ICU environment for developing babies.

Parental Guidance (PG) is a virtual initiative hosted by UHealth Jackson Children’s Care and Miami Mom Collective. It brings together educational information and family‑friendly resources through health experts to help expert parents produce epic kids.
