An advanced maternal age pregnancy is one in which the mother is 35 years or older, regardless of whether it is a first pregnancy or not. These pregnancies can have complications that may impact outcomes for both mom and baby and include the increased possibility of multiples, birth defects or conditions like preeclampsia for the mother. A healthy pregnancy is desirable from the start and this one-time course focuses on how to have a healthy pregnancy, prenatal testing options and possible birth defects, complications for the mother and other essential topics. The class should be taken as early as possible in the pregnancy, but the information is beneficial at any time. This class will be offered approximately every other month but can also be taken by appointment by contacting Kathy Coleman at kcoleman@sjrmc.net.
