Pre-Pregnancy Preparation Matters
Every journey has a beginning, middle and an end. The journey to giving life begins before conception, with the health of both the mother and father. Pre-pregnancy Awareness Month highlights the importance how early care, nutrition, and monitoring can help reduce risks during pregnancy and childbirth. In the face of the ongoing maternal mortality crisis, proactive preconception care is a vital step toward safer pregnancies and healthier outcomes.

Las visitas de rutina para el bebé son mucho más que chequeos — son una oportunidad para seguir el crecimiento, desarrollo y salud general de tu peque.

Estas visitas regulares te dan espacio para hacer preguntas, recibir apoyo del proveedor de salud de tu bebé y asegurarte de que esté alcanzando sus metas importantes. ✨

Desde los exámenes físicos hasta las vacunas recomendadas, las visitas de control ayudan a construir una base fuerte y saludable desde el comienzo.
