What is the prenatal visit?
A prenatal visit is a regular visit to your doctor during pregnancy. While you are pregnant, you will book several prenatal visits during which your doctor will examine your health and your baby’s wellbeing.
What is the best time to schedule my visit?
The best time to schedule your first prenatal visit depends on several factors. The best way to determine when you should book your first prenatal appointment is by contacting your Pembroke Pines, and Hollywood, FL, OBGYN if you suspect pregnancy, to tell them your health conditions and your medical history, and they will tell you when to visit.
How often should you have a prenatal visit?
The frequency of prenatal visits can differ highly depending on each patient’s needs. In most cases, the physicians will ask you to schedule an appointment every four weeks during the first two trimesters, every two weeks during the third trimester, and every week after the 36th week. In some patients who may require increased medical care, the physician may require more frequent visits.
What happens during the prenatal visit?
At your first visit, your doctor will evaluate your overall health condition, take your medical history, check your vital signs, listen to the heartbeat of your baby, and take the measurements of your abdomen. They may also take blood and urine samples to test them, checking for any health conditions.
Also, your doctor will discuss the symptoms of pregnancy that you are having and answer all of your questions and concerns.
