About this listen

Hearing the words "high-risk pregnancy" can feel scary, but it doesn't always mean something is wrong. In this episode, Dr. Ravi Chokshi is joined by maternal-fetal medicine specialist Dr. Jaimey Pauli to explain what a high-risk pregnancy really means, why someone might be referred to an MFM, and what MFMs do to support you and your care team. They discuss common reasons for referral (including medical conditions, pregnancy complications, and ultrasound findings), what to expect at your first MFM visit, and how MFMs often work alongside your regular OB-GYN or midwife.
