Pregnancy-planning Education Program
 


Planning to get pregnant?

Learn what you need to know now to have a safe pregnancy and healthy baby.   CDC has a new online education program available for women who are planning to get pregnant.

By going to www.ihealthrecord.org, and enrolling, you can receive health information via email every other week for 3 months as you prepare for pregnancy. 

CDC, other federal agencies, and medical societies have developed email-based education programs that are offered through the Interactive Health Record (iHealthRecord), located online at www.ihealthrecord.org.
