Keeping yourself and your baby healthy early in pregnancy

It’s the most excited you’ll ever be. And it’s the most scared you’ve ever been. Myra J. Wick, M.D., Ph.D., Mayo Clinic obstetrician, gynecologist, and medical geneticist, joins co-hosts Angela Mattke, M.D., and Nipunie Rajapakse M.D., to discuss the often-conflicted feelings of expectant parents. Questions tackled include: * What factors make a pregnancy “high risk?” How much does age matter? What can I do to lower that risk? * What can I do during pregnancy to give my baby her best chance at being born healthy, and staying that way? * Should we consider genetic testing? * How should we plan our lives — work, relationships — with a needy new addition joining our ranks?
