Pregnancy Links and Resources

"What good mothers and fathers instinctively feel like doing for their babies is usually best after all."
- Dr. Benjamin Spock

The following links provide education or products that many families find helpful during their childbearing year and beyond.

We have decided not to include the expansive list of excellent local practitioners who provide services for expectant mothers, babies, and growing families. However, if you are looking for a good recommendation for a local pediatrician, obstetric provider, chiropractor, acupuncturist, prenatal massage therapist, or any other type of practitioner, please don't hesitate to call the Maternal Wellness Center at 338-0708. We have many wonderful recommendations to make.
