Nearly 4 million women give birth in the U.S. every year and almost a third of them will suffer pregnancy-related complications, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Prenatal care not only helps ensure those complications are caught early and treated, but can help prevent premature births. To support proper prenatal care and help women deliver healthy babies, TriWest Healthcare Alliance is now offering a new resource for military families who are expecting: The Pregnancy and Parenting Portal.
The pregnancy and parenting portal connects military families to helpful information for various stages of pregnancy, as well as for adoption. The TriWest portal offers information on TRICARE coverage and locating a nearby military clinic.
The portal includes:
Before Pregnancy: Tips to get ready for being pregnant
New Baby and Child Care: Resources for well-baby care, safety, emergency care, stages of development
During Pregnancy: Information to keep both mom and baby healthy during pregnancy
Tools for New Dads: What to expect during the pregnancy and keeping involved
After Delivery: Resources to help keep you and your baby healthy and safe
Adoption: TRICARE benefits information; military adoption resources
In addition to educating families on the importance of prenatal care, the portal provides access to resources for early childhood development, creating a safe and hazard-free environment and well-baby care.
