What does the obstetrician do before a delivery?

Before a delivery, the obstetrician conducts a thorough assessment of the mother and the fetus, including monitoring vital signs, checking fetal heart rates, and reviewing any complications or medical history. They also discuss the birth plan with the mother, provide information about the delivery process, and prepare for any necessary interventions. Additionally, the obstetrician ensures that all medical equipment and supplies are ready for the delivery.
