Are You Expecting?

Congratulations!  This exciting time in your life may be filled with a roller coaster of emotions.  From attending childbirth classes to choosing a pediatrician, you may feel overwhelmed at the thought of becoming a new parent.  St. Mary's Hospital offers a wide variety of seminars and classes throughout the year to help you prepare for this amazing adventure.  You may want to visit our Women’s Health and Family Birthing Center to meet our staff, peek into our nursery and view our comfortable birthing suites first hand.  Tours are held on the second and fourth Sunday of every month. Contact Health Connections at 301-475-6019 for more information.

You may also want to attend our annual Baby & Toddler Fair held in late summer.  Whether you’re thinking about starting a family or already have children, this event is for you!
