Many mothers experience no serious health issues during pregnancy. But sometimes, challenges come up that can affect your health or the health of your unborn baby.
If this happens during your pregnancy, MultiCare’s high-risk pregnancy care can give you the extra special prenatal care and attention you need.

When you face special challenges in your pregnancy, you want the best possible care from top doctors.
Your team of experts may include MultiCare maternal-fetal medicine specialists, diabetes experts, nutritionists, pediatric cardiologists, pediatric surgeons, other pediatric subspecialists, and neonatologists who will work with your obstetrician to care for you throughout your pregnancy.
During a high-risk pregnancy, there are enough uncertainties. We help give you peace of mind by outlining your care visits in a personalized high-risk pregnancy care plan.
This plan will be based on the latest clinical evidence and best practices in pregnancy care.

You’ll also have the peace of mind of knowing that at MultiCare — like no other health system in the area — you will benefit from the combined resources of expert MultiCare obstetricians and pediatric specialists through Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital.
The Tacoma General Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) provides Level IV care, the region's highest level of care for fragile babies.
