When Should Prenatal Care Begin?
Experts recommend starting prenatal care at least three months before conception to optimize maternal and fetal health. During preconception visits, we assess your overall health, review existing medical conditions, and discuss medications and lifestyle changes to prepare for pregnancy.

Once you conceive, we will establish a prenatal appointment schedule to monitor your health and the baby’s development at each stage of pregnancy. Routine prenatal check-ups typically include:
- First six months: Monthly check-ups
- Seventh and eighth months: Bi-weekly visits
- Final month: Weekly appointments
During these visits, we monitor:
