A new website for pregnant moms is being hailed as a resource for families to find information for preparing for a healthy pregnancy.
Fraser Health's Best Beginnings website (bestbeginnings.fraserhealth.ca) contains info provided by doctors, hospital maternity staff and public health employees to promote the health of pregnant women, new moms and babies in Fraser Health communities.
"The Best Beginnings website is an excellent resource for new and expectant mothers and families," stated Dr. Victoria Lee, executive medical director for population health, in a press release. "All pregnant women should visit the website to register in the prenatal system and to access valuable insights, tips and information that supports healthy pregnancy and healthy child development."
In addition to the online prenatal registration, the Best Beginnings website provides information about understanding fertility, depression and anxiety, healthy child development and links to local community services. It also shares tips and solutions to practical questions about finances, managing relationships and information specifically for new dads.
This local resource complements the province's Healthy Families BC website (healthyfamiliesbc.ca).
