SPECIAL REPORT: Las Vegas family reunites with doctor who saved baby's life before birth

For an expectant mother, terms like gestational diabetes, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and macrosomia can be just as frightening as they are confusing.  

Prenatal testing and screening are vital during pregnancy to ensure that both mom and baby are progressing through the pregnancy as expected.  

Turning the oven on or firing up a burner on the stove when it’s over 100 degrees outside…no thank you!

A summer pregnancy can be a real challenge for moms-to-be, especially in the heat of the desert southwest.  

What men think is happening and what women actually experience can be quite different.

At Desert Perinatal Associates we specialize in high-risk pregnancies, so we are always being asked for advice on managing a pregnancy. The do’s, the don’ts, what’s safe, what’s not safe.
