Once your pregnancy is confirmed, consider arranging an appointment with your GP to discuss your pregnancy and plan your antenatal care.
Antenatal appointments provide an opportunity to monitor your health and your baby’s development throughout pregnancy. Regular appointments may help identify potential concerns earlier and allow appropriate care, monitoring or referral to be arranged.
You can also ask questions about pregnancy, physical and emotional changes, screening options, preparing for birth and caring for yourself and your baby after birth.
Book an appointment with a GP practising at Westridge Medical to discuss your antenatal care.
The care provided during antenatal appointments depends on your stage of pregnancy, medical history, individual circumstances and agreed care plan. Appointments may include:
Your GP or maternity care provider will explain which appointments, examinations, tests and referrals are recommended for your individual pregnancy.
The number and timing of antenatal appointments varies according to your health, stage of pregnancy, previous pregnancies, individual risk factors and model of maternity care.
Your GP, midwife or maternity care provider will discuss an appropriate appointment schedule with you. Additional appointments, tests or specialist referrals may be recommended if concerns arise during pregnancy.
You are welcome to bring your partner, a family member, friend or another support person to an antenatal appointment. You may find this helpful when discussing birth preferences and preparing for support during pregnancy and birth.
You can ask to speak with your doctor privately at any time.
