Diagnosis
During your prenatal check-ups, your obstetrician will check for any possible complications such as anaemia, gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, foetal health issues. Your doctor will conduct physical exams, and suggest blood tests or ultrasound exams, as necessary.
We offer 3 routine scans to every pregnant woman who consult us:
11- 14 weeks scan (FTS) during the first trimester.
This is a critical period, marked by rapid changes for both you and your baby. These scans help doctors rule out Down syndrome, anencephaly, cleft lip,abnormal placenta function and other abnormalities in the foetus. These scans reveal the age of the baby and if there are multiple pregnancies. Meet your doctor to understand what to expect and what to be careful about.
You need to take extra care because the pregnancy is very fragile. Morning sickness is at its worst during the first trimester and sometimes there is loss of appetite accompanied by an aversion to certain smells or food. Your breasts will feel tender and swollen and as the pregnancy progresses you may feel out of breath sometimes as the baby pushes up into your lung space.
18 – 22 weeks (Anomaly /level 2/target scan) during the second trimester.
These scans check the health and position of the placenta, water level and baby’s growth. This is the best period of pregnancy. For most women the symptoms of morning sickness go away and they are restored to their former energetic selves. Your nipples turn dark and you experience itching and stretchmarks.
Regular visits to your doctor remain important during the second trimester. Share all your anxieties and apprehensions with your doctor so he may be able to assist you. Your doctor will monitor your baby’s heartbeat using Doppler ultrasound test.
28 – 35 weeks (growth scan) during the third trimester.
The growth scan is done primarily to check the speed of growth, foetal heart rate and measurements that denote proper growth. This is a difficult time as you may experience back pain, leg cramps, heartburn, hemorrhoids, swollen ankles, warm body temperature, and tiredness. Consult your doctor if you have excessive ankle swelling.
You will feel your baby move and kick, it’s a great time of joy and exhilaration! Continue to visit your doctor regularly and learn how to smoothly manage the final stages of your pregnancy. At any time if you experience symptoms of severe abdominal pain, significant bleeding or extreme dizziness, call your doctor immediately.
