The stage of motherhood is full of illusion, but also of doubts. Having midwives in Telde, Las Palmas or in your city of residence to accompany this process makes the difference between living it with uncertainty or with security and confidence. At Ginelux, our team is made up of professionals who guide you through every step: from the preparation for pregnancy to the postpartum period.
What is the role of a midwife?
A midwife is a health professional specialized in the care of women during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period. Her function goes beyond attending the birth. At Ginelux, in Telde, our midwife Marta Santana Robaina works hand in hand with gynecologists Elena Torres Castellano y Rosa Rodríguez de la Mano to offer an integral accompaniment. This means that you will receive not only clinical support, but also emotional and practical support at all stages of motherhood.
Before pregnancy: preparation and orientation
Many women come to a midwife's office in Telde even before they become pregnant. This initial accompaniment helps to resolve doubts and to prepare the body and mind for this stage.
Some of the most common recommendations are:
- Review general health and lifestyle habits.
- Guidance on balanced nutrition and necessary supplements.
- Resolve doubts about fertility, contraception and family planning.
- Inform about vaccinations or pre-pregnancy check-ups.
