At Womens Health Group Chicago, our team of trusted experts is here to guide expectant mothers through the crucial first trimester with dedicated screenings and tests. The early weeks of pregnancy are essential for the wellbeing of both mother and child, as many important developmental milestones occur in this initial stage. Our range of diagnostic procedures ensures a healthy start by detecting potential complications like Down syndrome or other chromosomal disorders.
A key service we offer at Women’s Health Group Chicago is systematic check-ups and monitoring throughout your pregnancy. Regular prenatal visits allow us to manage any underlying conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure that can harm you or your baby if not appropriately managed. Detailed assessments enable us to track your baby’s development accurately using advanced ultrasound technology while providing you with an ongoing stream of information about what to expect throughout the duration of your pregnancy.
Pregnancy requires additional nutrients to sustain both mother and baby; therefore, nutritional counseling forms a core part of our prenatal care regimen at Womens Health Group Chicago. Our registered dietitians provide personalized advice based on individual dietary needs, ensuring optimal nutrition throughout every chapter of maternity. Additionally, appropriate supplementation plays a significant role in assisting neural development, preventing birth defects, easing morning sickness- all geared towards fostering vibrant health during this critical period.

April Susmarski2024-08-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a new patient and the care I received there from all of the staff really impressed me. I couldn’t be happier with Dr. Mike and I cannot recommend him enough! His review of my (and my family’s) medical history was so in depth that we actually covered more than I ever have with my regular doctor. He went above and beyond to say the least. His approach is preventative, instead of just waiting for an issue to arise. Needless to say, I know I’m in good hands there.

It is recommended that you start prenatal care as soon as you find out you are pregnant. This will give your doctor a chance to monitor your pregnancy from the beginning and identify any potential problems early on.
The number of prenatal care appointments you need will vary depending on your individual pregnancy. However, most women will see their doctor every four weeks during the first two trimesters of pregnancy and every two weeks during the third trimester.
At your prenatal care appointments, your doctor will perform a physical exam, check your weight and blood pressure, and listen to your baby’s heartbeat. They will also ask you about any symptoms you are experiencing and answer any questions you have about your pregnancy.
During prenatal care, you will need to have a number of tests to monitor your health and your baby’s health. These tests may include:
It is important to eat a healthy diet during pregnancy. You should eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein. You should also avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive caffeine.
Most exercises are safe during pregnancy. However, it is important to talk to your doctor before starting any new exercise program. Some good exercises for pregnant women include walking, swimming, and yoga.
Some common pregnancy symptoms include:
You should go to the hospital when you have regular contractions that are 5-10 minutes apart and last for 30-60 seconds. You should also go to the hospital if you experience any of the following:
