How often do I see the doctor for prenatal visits?

This varies by patient. For a healthy, complication-free pregnancy, you'll typically see your Complete Healthcare for Women provider on the following schedule:

From weeks 4-28: prenatal visits monthly
From weeks 28-36: prenatal visits every two weeks
From 36 weeks until delivery: prenatal visits weekly

If you have a high-risk pregnancy, the prenatal visits are usually more frequent, typically twice as often. If you develop complications that require specialist care, your care providers refer you to reputable and highly trusted local specialists.

Every pregnancy journey is different, so your Complete Healthcare for Women provider recommends a prenatal care schedule for your specific needs.

What can I expect during prenatal visits?

During your first prenatal visit, your care provider does a complete pelvic exam, typically including a Pap smear. You'll also have blood and urine testing for STDs, anemia, and other potential problems. Your Complete Healthcare for Women provider gives you an estimated due date at this point.

In upcoming visits, you may not need a full pelvic exam. Often, second and third trimester visits are fairly short. Your provider checks your weight and blood pressure and measures your belly. You'll have ultrasounds as needed, typically at least twice, to check on your baby's development.

If your pregnancy is considered high risk, you may need additional testing. Your prenatal visits at Complete Healthcare for Women are customized for your unique needs, and your provider encourages you to bring any questions with you that you may have.
