Pre-existing conditions such as obesity, epilepsy, severe Asthma, high blood pressure and Diabetes should be addressed prior to pregnancy - with every attempt on the part of the mother to be extremely compliant during pregnancy to keep these health issues under control.
When it comes to the birth itself most risks can be assessed prior to labor and those in a high risk category need to be monitored closely, (for instance, placenta previa) and possibly delivered prior to term - on a case by case basis. There are tests for Strep B and herpes prior to labor and medications that are used before or when the woman presents in labor.
Some women suddenly develop conditions associated with pregnancy late in the third trimester. Pre-eclampsia (also known as Toxemia) and placental abruption are obstetrical emergencies that can't always be foreseen and may necessitate an immediate delivery to protect the mother and baby. Gestational diabetes also presents certain risks that can develop during the labor process that will need to be assessed as they arise.
Please talk to your health care provider about your personal history and known risk factors and any possible complications that are on your mind.
