Follow-up for pregnant women
As soon as you find out you are pregnant, you will want to see a doctor or health care professional to prepare for your pregnancy follow-up. Your doctor will determine the hospital where you will give birth.
You will also be given a practical guide for parents: “From pregnancy to two years old: live better with your child.” This free guide will provide useful tips and information on available resources, stages of pregnancy, child development, and more. Visit the Portail santé mieux être [Health and Wellness Portal] for more information.
