Frequently Asked Questions

For most appointments, you simply need to show up and be prepared to answer questions about your health. Some tests may require specific preparations, such as fasting for a glucose test or drinking water for an ultrasound. Always check with the doctor ahead of time for any specific instructions.

Antenatal care focuses not only on physical health but also on mental well-being. Many doctors offer counselling, stress management advice, and support for mental health challenges such as anxiety or depression, which can be more common during pregnancy.

Generally, you should visit your doctor every 4–6 weeks in the first and second trimesters, and more frequently during the third trimester.

Antenatal care includes blood tests, ultrasounds, glucose screening, and checks for infections and genetic conditions.

Nutrition plays a key role in ensuring healthy fetal development, and a balanced diet with necessary supplements is crucial during pregnancy.
