Your Partner In Ensuring A Safe And Healthy Pregnancy Journey

Bringing a new life into this world is an incredibly amazing yet life-changing experience. We value and ensure that you and your family’s pregnancy journey is stress-free by providing tailored Antenatal Care Services support throughout it to guarantee the best outcome for you and the baby.

What Is Antenatal Care?

Also known as pregnancy care, antenatal care encompasses the medical and healthcare support provided during the pregnancy. A woman should regularly have antenatal check-ups to detect and manage risks early, encourage healthy pregnancy practices, and prepare the expecting mother for delivery and parenthood.

Specialist obstetricians, gynaecologists, sonographers, dietitians, and nursing staff work collaboratively with patients to ensure a safe and friendly environment that provides holistic care.

Key Services Offered at East Point Hospital

We schedule regular visits with our doctors to monitor the health of expecting mothers and their babies. These include weight checks, blood pressure monitoring, and tracking the baby’s growth and movements.

    • Ultrasound Scans: Ultrasound scans are performed to confirm pregnancy, verify heartbeat, track growth, and diagnose abnormalities. Special scans include NT scans (11-14 weeks) and anomaly scans (~20 weeks).
    • Blood and Urine Tests: These comprehensive screenings help uncover anaemia, infections, diabetes, or thyroid issues that could pose problems during pregnancy.
    • Nutritional Guidance and Supplements: Our dietitians design meal plans specific to mothers’ and babies’ needs for optimal nutrients. We also recommend crucial supplements like folate, iron, and calcium.
    • High-Risk Pregnancy Management: Our experts provide comprehensive care and surveillance to manage risks for complicated high blood pressure during pregnancy, gestational diabetes, or carrying multiple babies.
    • Antenatal Vaccinations: Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) and flu shots protect both mother and infant.
    • Antenatal Classes: Regular workshops are conducted that focus on breathing and labour preparation, pain management, breastfeeding, and caring for the newborn.
    • Emergency Support and Hospital Admission: Our emergency care team is on standby 24/7 for immediate attention in case of sudden symptoms or complications requiring urgent Southlake Hospital admission.

Frequently Asked Questions

Typically, a patient meets only once a month in the first 28 weeks. After 28 weeks, visits become more common, and then every two weeks until two weeks before the due date, and then once a week until delivery. Most of my patients require additional checks for other medical conditions that the woman is dealing with on an ongoing basis but outside the pregnancy.

In most scenarios, zone travel is allowed in the second trimester, weeks 14 to 28. However, patients should check with their doctor before making any plans that require them to leave their home region.

Remember to carry your pregnancy file containing all the relevant scan reports. You can also make a list of questions regarding any symptoms you would like clarified during the appointment. Don't forget to put on some comfortable clothes, and always have water nearby.
