Moms and dads-to-be looking to get a better understanding of pregnancy and parenthood are invited to Makati Medical Center’s latest lay forum “Pregnancy and Beyond.”
Now on its 10th year, the forum features MakatiMed’s doctors from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Department of Pediatrics who will share what moms and dads need to understand about parenthood, as well the mom-to-be’s journey from prenatal to post-pregnancy.
The forums cover a range of topics scheduled throughout the year. On April 27, participants will learn about “Setting Expectations: A Guide to EINC (Essential Intropartum and Newborn Care), Newborn Baby Care, and Breastfeeding FAQs” at the 8th Floor Auditorium Tower 2, Makati Medical Center.
On May 18, topic to be discussed is “Postpartum Blues, Immunization, and Motherhood for Millennial Moms.” And finally, participants eager to learn about “Baby Sign Language/Baby Sleep Training/Baby Led Weaning, First Aid for Babies, and Spotting Red Flags: Developmental Delays,” may join the June 22 lay forum.
MakatiMed’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology has been offering this series of lay forums with the Department of Pediatrics since 2010 to promote pre- and postnatal care, safe infant care practices, breastfeeding, and pediatric development.
Aside from learning from the experts and a chance to socialize with other parents-to-be, attendees are treated to giveaways, product discounts, raffle prizes, and hefty lunch.
