Why regular visits matter

Tracking weight, blood pressure, urine protein, fetal movement, and ultrasound helps detect preeclampsia, growth restriction, and gestational diabetes.

Reference milestones (may vary)

  • Weeks 6–12: confirm pregnancy, dating scan.
  • Weeks 11–14: early screening where offered.
  • Weeks 24–28: glucose tolerance test.
  • Week 28+: more frequent visits and kick counts.

At each visit

Bring your pregnancy record, medication list, and written questions about diet and supplements.

Note

Your doctor adjusts timing for medical history and risk factors.
