What To Expect During Your First Visit With a Pediatrician as an Expectant Parent

Pediatric Associates Denham Springs can provide hands-on care for expecting parents, including various types of pediatric care. For example, we can help you with an expectant parent visit in Denham Springs, LA, to ensure you get help. Here’s what you need to know about your first visit with our team of high-quality baby care specialists.

General Health Check

We review your general health, weight, vital signs, and other important factors. We want to ensure everything is going smoothly and will talk with you through each step to ensure you know what will happen to you as your baby grows. Many mothers, particularly first-time ones, aren’t quite prepared for the challenges. We’ll ensure you’re ready for potential issues and changes (such as weight gain).

Baby Health Check

After we confirm you’re pregnant (a formality but an important one) and get through your general health check, we’ll check your baby’s development to ensure they’re okay. This process includes vital sign exams and scans to see their development. Depending on where you’re at in your development, you might see them at this point! At Pediatric Associates Denham Springs, we’ll make your expectant parent visit in Denham Springs, LA, powerful emotionally.

  • How much weight will I gain?
  • What problems should I expect?
  • Will I feel "confused"?
  • When should I call you?

It’s vital that you understand precisely what you’re getting into with your pregnancy. We’ll answer all your questions, no matter how tough, to ensure you walk away happy with your situation.
