High-Risk Pregnancy Program

Pregnancy can be a stressful time, especially if there’s a complication or a known risk factor. If you have a complicated pregnancy, your doctor may refer you to Beaumont’s High-Risk Pregnancy Program.

Offered through Beaumont’s division of Maternal Fetal Medicine, our program provides consultations and second opinions to you and your obstetrician. Our goal is to answer questions, explain conditions, provide testing and help you and your baby from conception to successful delivery.

In the program, prenatal care is extensive. You’ll meet with a team of specialists, which includes genetic counselors, dietitians, social workers, nurse specialists and pediatric subspecialists.

The High-Risk Pregnancy Program also is backed by the extensive resources of the hospital. Beaumont has a comprehensive neonatal intensive care unit and physicians representing 36 pediatric specialties to help you and your baby.

As a result, your team is experienced to handle virtually any high-risk pregnancy problem, including those that involve:

• Diabetes
• Heart disease
• Kidney disease
• High blood pressure
• Cancer in pregnancy
• Rh blood factor problems
• History of pre-term birth
• Genetic disease in the mother or family
• Quadruplets and other multiple births
• Birth defects identified before birth
