You are pregnant and have a maternity health card (also called pregnancy record book) has been given to you? It is intended to provide you with clear information about the course of your pregnancy. It is sent to you free of charge by your department at the end of 1^er prenatal examination. Every examination is recorded there by the doctor or midwife. This facilitates communication between health care practitioners. We present you with the information you need to know.

The Maternity Health Notebook provides information on the following:

The course of the medical follow-up of your pregnancy
Your rights (example: maternity leave)
Your obligations (example: medical examinations)
Existing aid (example: early childhood care benefit).

It makes it easier for health professionals and social workers to coordinate the follow-up of your pregnancy until delivery.

The maternity health booklet is issued to you for free by the services of your department during the 1st prenatal examination mandatory, i.e. before the end of your 3^e months of pregnancy.
