Is the pregnancy test positive? Congratulations!
Once all the emotions have passed, several questions may arise. What should I do now?
The different options available to you
• Do you have a family doctor? To happiness! Contact the doctor now to make sure he can carry out your pregnancy follow-up, or refer you to a colleague.
• Do you not have a family doctor or is this service not offered by your doctor? If you are from Quebec, please note that Prenato offers a pregnancy follow-up service. A possibility that we are very proud to offer!
• Assessment of your health and lifestyle • Physical and gynecological exams
• Trisomy 21 screening; which can be performed at Prenato using a single blood test and makes it possible to detect the 3 main types of trisomies (13,18,21)
• An ultrasound (it is also possible to book for all your pregnancy ultrasounds); make an appointment as soon as you have your prescription with us!
• Periodic consultations with a health professional
The other options
If in doubt, contact the CLSC, the CISSS or the hospital in your region. They will be able to direct you to the best resources for your situation. If you want to find the professional who will monitor your pregnancy yourself, consult the list of clinics in your area that monitor pregnancy, and start calling!
And support?
Please note that for any questions, concerns, and support needs, Prenato also offers you a personalized support service, as well as videos and online antenatal courses. A question of living your pregnancy in a more serene way!
