Description:

Prenatal care is health care you get while you are pregnant. Regular prenatal care is important for everyone. It is especially important for women with sickle cell disease (SCD) because they are at greater risk for developing complications (health problems) during pregnancy than women without SCD. Pain crises and other SCD complications can become more severe or increase in frequency while you are pregnant, but regular care can help you manage and prevent complications. Learn what steps you can take to help stay healthy throughout your pregnancy.
