Answer 4

Many reasons: The doctor may not be equipped to manage high risk patients. Proficiency in ultrasound, a strong medicine background, fetal monitors, and a staff trained in handling emergencies are usually minimum requirements. It may also be because the doc only delivers at a low-risk facility that isn't set up for preemies or high risk moms or babies. Bottom line, if they won't see you, respect their decision.

Threat 2 mom or baby: There are many maternal conditions that can affect pregnancy. Some are present before a woman gets pregnant, and others develop during the pregnancy. Fetal conditions can occur because of problems in development, abnormal intrauterine conditions or many of the maternal diseases or conditions such as diabetes or preeclampsia.

Complications: High risk pregnancy means that you are at higher risk of experiencing possible complications because of your underlying medical condition as it relates to your pregnancy. Many diseases and conditions can cause a "high risk" pregnancy. Discuss your condition(s) with your obstetrician.
