Prenatal Care

- Don't wait to get your first prenatal checkup scheduled. Prenatal care visits include screenings for conditions that can cause difficulties during pregnancy. Don't put it off any longer if you haven't already gone that route.
Antenatal Care
- During the first and second trimesters, every four weeks is the norm. You will be seen more frequently in the third trimester, typically every two weeks up until 36 weeks, and then weekly up until the birth of the baby.
- We recommend that you come in for your initial appointment around the eighth week of pregnancy. If you have a medical condition, a history of pregnancy complications, or symptoms like vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, or severe nausea and vomiting, we will see you as quickly as possible.
