Having a healthy pregnancy and reducing the risk of delivering too soon is the topic of today's Deseret News/Intermountain Healthcare Hotline. From 10 a.m. to noon, Dr. Sean Esplin, a maternal-fetal medicine expert and associate professor at the University of Utah medical school, and registered nurse Katrina Jensen, a care manager in SelectHealth's Healthy Baby program, will take phoned-in questions. From the Salt Lake area, call 236-6061. Elsewhere, the toll-free number is 1-800-925-8177, only operational during hotline hours.

This month, you can also e-mail questions to Hotline@desnews.com. A sampling of questions will be answered online next Friday.
