Pregnancy is a remarkable journey, and at Klinik Casabrina in Senawang, we are committed to ensuring that every step of this journey is a healthy and joyful one.
Our Antenatal Checkup services are designed to provide expectant mothers with the finest prenatal care, guidance, and support. We believe that a well-monitored pregnancy not only leads to the well-being of the mother but also plays a vital role in the development and health of the unborn child.
Antenatal checkups, often referred to as prenatal or pregnancy checkups, are a series of medical appointments scheduled during pregnancy. These checkups are essential for several reasons:
A comprehensive evaluation of your health and medical history to establish a baseline for your pregnancy.
Scheduled appointments throughout pregnancy to monitor vital signs, fetal growth, and overall health.
These non-invasive imaging tests allow for visualizing the fetus and monitoring its development.
Various blood tests are conducted to assess blood type, screen for genetic disorders, and check for infections.
Essential for detecting and managing conditions like preeclampsia.
To screen for gestational diabetes.
Regular checkups allow for the continuous monitoring of your baby's growth and well-being.
Early detection and management of any complications or issues that may arise during pregnancy.
Access to essential information and guidance to promote a healthy pregnancy and childbirth experience.
Antenatal care provides emotional support and reassurance during this significant life event.
Antenatal care contributes to a healthier pregnancy, reducing the risk of complications and ensuring a positive outcome for both mother and baby.
Your first visit typically occurs early in pregnancy. It involves a thorough medical history review, physical examination, and discussions about prenatal care
These appointments occur approximately once a month in the first two trimesters and more frequently in the third trimester. They include measurements of blood pressure, weight, and urine analysis, as well as discussions about any concerns or symptoms.
Scheduled at specific points during pregnancy to assess fetal development and ensure everything is progressing as expected.
Depending on individual risk factors or medical history, additional tests and screenings may be recommended.
Antenatal visits are typically more frequent than just four times during pregnancy. Standard schedules include monthly visits during the first two trimesters, bi-weekly visits during the third trimester, and weekly visits as the due date approaches.
Antenatal checkups usually include monitoring vital signs (blood pressure, weight), urine analysis, discussions about symptoms and concerns, fetal growth assessment, and various tests such as blood tests and ultrasounds.
The number of antenatal visits can vary but is typically around 12 to 14 visits during a healthy pregnancy. However, high-risk pregnancies may require more frequent visits.
Antenatal checkups should ideally start as soon as you confirm your pregnancy, which is typically around 8 weeks after your last menstrual period (LMP).
Antenatal visit schedules may vary, but a common schedule includes monthly visits during weeks 8-28, bi-weekly visits from weeks 28-36, and weekly visits from week 36 until delivery. Additional visits may be necessary if complications or specific medical conditions arise.
