Prenatal Care
From the moment you learn you are expecting a baby until the arrival of your newest family member, we offer personalized and professional prenatal services.
Gifford Ob/Gyn and Midwifery is located just before the medical center in Randolph.
Midwifery
Certified nurse-midwives are health care providers (specially certified in nursing and midwifery) who provide health care to women throughout their lives. They believe women deserve time and individualized attention during pregnancy to be healthy, feel empowered to birth, and to take care of their baby.
Pregnancy and birth is unique, and every family has its own needs. Midwives help each family make decisions by taking the time to talk about all aspects of pregnancy and birth. They work with doctors who specialize in illness and complications during pregnancy as well as with other health care providers, including social workers, nutritionists, doulas, childbirth educators, and physical therapists.
At Gifford, midwifery care is provided by a team of certified nurse-midwives offering birthing care 24 hours a day and routine gynecological care by appointment, including:
- Adolescent reproductive health services focusing on healthy behaviors
- Contraceptive counseling and management
- Well-woman care and annual exams throughout life
- Diagnosis and care of common gynecological problems
- Preconception counseling and care
- Prenatal care
- Extensive, individualized labor support
- Postpartum care
- Lactation support
Midwifery is available at Gifford Ob/Gyn and Midwifery in Randolph and Gifford Health Center at Berlin – Primary Care.
