Advanced Maternal Age: Advocate Assistant

Pregnancy at age 35 or older may come with additional screening, monitoring, and decisions along the way. This downloadable Advocate Assistant is designed to help you keep track of important questions to discuss with your care team from your first prenatal visit through the third trimester.

Use it to guide conversations about low-dose aspirin and preeclampsia prevention, gestational diabetes screening, cervical length, genetic and chromosome screening, your anatomy ultrasound, fetal growth monitoring, antenatal testing, and delivery timing. It also includes space for notes so you can keep important information from your visits together in one place. 

This resource can help you arrive at appointments prepared with questions and better understand the plan for your pregnancy.
