Take Action!
There are lots of things you can do today to have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.
Get prenatal care.
If you know you are pregnant or think you might be, call your doctor or midwife to schedule a visit.
Get important shots.
Talk to your doctor or midwife about which shots (vaccines) you may need. These shots can help protect you and your baby.
Take charge of your health care.
Speak up and ask questions when you are at the doctor. When you play an active role in your health care, you help make sure that you and your growing family will get good care.
Know your family’s health history.
Use this family health history tool to keep track of your family’s health. Share this health information with the doctors and nurses who take care of you and your family.
