Pregnancy and Childbirth
Whether you're trying to conceive, expecting a baby or preparing for delivery, our multidisciplinary team provides fertility services, prenatal visits, ultrasounds and personalized care every step of the way.
Pregnancy and Delivery Care
Our teams provide care that's connected, coordinated and built around you, not just your due date. This includes your first prenatal visit through postpartum recovery.
Our multidisciplinary team supports you with prenatal visits, ultrasounds and personalized care plans from your first trimester through preparing for delivery.
With private rooms, spacious bathtubs, pain management options, 24/7 physician coverage and birth plan support, our TeamBirth program puts you at the center of every decision.
Our postpartum program is one of the most comprehensive in the region, offering recovery support, lactation consultations, follow-up visits and doula services for up to a year after delivery.
Specialized Programs
Some pregnancies call for a higher level of expertise. Our teams from maternal-fetal medicine, genetics and the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) work together with your existing medical teams, midwife or doula, so you’re never navigating complex care alone.
When pregnancy is affected by maternal health conditions, fetal anomalies or placental concerns, our maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) team provides the expertise your family needs. From advanced ultrasound and genetic counseling to complex delivery planning, our MFM specialists work closely with your OB or midwife, keeping your care connected from start to finish. For families facing difficult diagnoses or pregnancy loss, our team includes social workers, genetic counselors, palliative care specialists and bereavement support to help navigate the hardest moments.
From standard first-trimester screening to advanced whole-genome sequencing, our genetic counselors provide comprehensive testing alongside clear, honest guidance. Not every screening results in a diagnosis – and before any decision is made, our team makes sure families understand exactly what findings mean and what comes next.
For newborns who need extra medical attention after birth, our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) teams across the Puget Sound are designated as Level III or higher and are equipped for every critical moment. We provide around-the-clock specialist care for premature and medically complex infants – including our Small Baby program for the most fragile newborns. Our family-centered approach keeps parents involved in feeding, holding and daily care, with 24-hour access to your baby throughout their stay.
Research endorsed by the World Health Organization and March of Dimes shows that greater midwifery integration is associated with lower C-section rates, better breastfeeding rates and fewer NICU admissions. Our certified nurse-midwives offer a different kind of prenatal experience, giving you more of their time. Midwifery appointments run 30 minutes, compared to the standard 15, giving you and your midwife space to talk through your whole health, not just your vitals. Midwives specialize in healthy pregnancies and common complications, and they stay connected to your care even when specialists get involved.
A doula can make a meaningful difference in how supported you feel, how labor progresses and how you remember your birth experience. Our experienced team of doulas are matched to patients based on personal preferences, language and culture. Doula services are available for prenatal visits, labor, delivery and postpartum care for up to one year after birth. For families who qualify, Medicaid covers your doula support.
Pregnancy and the postpartum period can bring profound emotional challenges, and they deserve the same expert attention as any physical symptom. Our reproductive psychiatry team specializes in the mental health needs of people who are pregnant or in the year following birth, offering support for anxiety, depression, mood disorders and medication management. At our First Hill campus, we also connect patients with the Providence Swedish Center for Perinatal Bonding and Support for those navigating perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.
Your reproductive health isn't one-size-fits-all. We offer personalized support from family planning and preconception counseling to fertility workups.
