What to Expect
The antenatal care you will receive will be tailored to your needs as each pregnancy is unique. Typically, each antenatal appointment will include a few minutes with our midwife to assist with support and advice when you are expecting, followed by a routine visit with Dr Stephens to assess your pregnancy and the health of the growing foetus.
Your antenatal care will include:
Regular pre-scheduled visits with a midwife and Dr Stephens
Lactation consultation and wellbeing checks
Ultrasound scans and other screening tests as required
Access to midwives over the phone or email as necessary
Information about pregnancy, delivery and reviewing your birth plan
Assessment of any pregnancy complications or symptoms
Your first appointment with Dr Stephens is usually from 14 weeks gestation. All tests and scans prior to 14 weeks are organised by your general practitioner or medical specialist.
