During pregnancy, many changes occur in your body. Even if your belly is not yet showing, significant developments are taking place internally. Common symptoms include:
- Frequent urination
- Nausea and fatigue
- Tender breasts
- Heightened emotional sensitivity
How you feel throughout your pregnancy depends on many factors, including the reactions from those around you. Try not to be too affected by well-meaning advice from others. If you have questions or concerns, you can always reach out to us
Registration
To register with us, please contact us during our phone consultation hours. Don’t wait too long to schedule your first appointment, as we have a limited number of slots available each month. Register as soon as possible so we can provide you with essential information and schedule your intake for 10-12 weeks. The midwifery care we provide is covered by your health insurer.
Pregnancy Check-Ups
The first check-up typically occurs around the 10th-12th week of pregnancy. This appointment will last about 45 minutes, as we need to gather detailed information about your health and discuss options for prenatal screening. You can also read more about NIPT and combined tests on the PNS website.
Subsequent check-ups will last about 15 minutes each. On average, you will visit us 12 times during your pregnancy. Please bring your pregnancy card to each visit. We offer ample time for each appointment, adjusted to your needs. There is a child-friendly consultation room with toys, and we welcome children to be involved in the check-ups.
