Prior to conception, ensuring your general health is at its best, avoiding alcohol and smoking, improving diet and weight control is recommended. Dr Skilbeck recommends particular vaccinations prior to pregnancy and commencement of folic acid in this important time.
Certain medical conditions become important and ensuring optimisation of medications and control of pre-existing conditions is vital to a successful outcome in pregnancy.
In addition, partners (male and female) also benefit from this consultation and it is becoming more evident that male health is also essential to creating new life.
Pre-pregnancy care gives patients an opportunity to meet with Dr Skilbeck before embarking on pregnancy, birth and parenthood.
