Pregnancy is an important part of every woman’s life. Right from the day you conceive till the day you deliver your baby, the entire journey is quite memorable. But doctor’s appointments every month could be challenging, this is why the NHS has designed a pregnancy journey to make all the doctor’s visits easy and convenient. The entire journey is broken into several steps for easier comprehension.

First antenatal visit

• The first antenatal appointment is set with a midwife.
• Pregnant women visit the midwife between 6 to 12 weeks from the time they have conceived.
• This appointment creates a patient-medical professional relationship between you and the midwife.
• You will be asked in detail about your health, allergies, medical condition, and lifestyle.
• Knowing your daily lifestyle by the midwife would allow changes in your daily life to make the entire pregnancy much healthier, safer, and convenient.
• Knowing the details about your medical history will also allow the midwife to know about any possible complications that you might come across during your pregnancy.

Medical care till delivery of the baby

• The medical professionals will keep you constantly updated on the well-being of you and your baby.
• You will be guided on the different birth plans by the time you are around 36 weeks pregnant.
• The risk assessment helps the midwife to rule out any possible events that you be a problem later.
• You can choose the option which best suits you if the risk assessment results come back as normal and uneventful.
• Women with low risk can have their baby at home, but those who have high risk need their baby delivered by an obstetrician.
