With the celebration of Mother’s Day approaching, HCA Healthcare wants to make sure that moms-to-be have the best information to make the right choice for the newest members of their families. Providing valuable information is just one part of our role as a trusted partner through the journey of motherhood.
As a mom, I know that having a baby is an exciting time in a woman’s life, but it is also important to be aware of the benefits of carrying to 39 weeks.

Happy Mother’s Day!
