Seamless support from diagnosis to post treatment care
The majority of pregnancies progress without complications, but there are instances where either the mother or her unborn baby may require specialized care for various reasons. Specialized care in fetal medicine becomes essential when the unborn baby presents abnormalities such as gastroschisis, or when the mother's medical conditions elevate the risk to the baby, as in the case of red cell antibodies or viral infections.
At BirthRight by Rainbow Hospitals, the well-being of your child commences even before birth. In addition to conducting routine fetal checks for all expectant mothers, we offer advanced fetal diagnostic and therapeutic services, encompassing various treatments. Our team includes highly experienced and renowned fetal medicine consultants and specialists, collaborating with other experts like Neonatologists, Geneticists, Pediatric Surgeons, Fetal Cardiologists, and Neurosurgeons within our multidisciplinary approach. Fetal intervention is recommended to ensure an early diagnosis of any potential issues or concerns. The fetal medicine department strives to provide the optimal health status for the baby while still in the womb.
The Fetal Medicine team at BirthRight by Rainbow Hospital, a hub for maternal-fetal medicine, is fully equipped and offers the following services:

Yes, breastfeeding is always encouraged. The antibodies and nutrients in breast milk help with the growth and development of newborns. You may need to pump your breast milk and store it in the freezer before it is time for the baby to take the milk.
