A Typical Schedule for Prenatal Visits and Tests

To ensure the health of you and your baby, you’ll need to schedule regular visits to your doctor during your pregnancy. Use this guideline for making your appointments and understanding common procedures for each visit:

Weeks	Possible Tests
6-8	Blood type, rubella titer, blood counts, HIV antibody, syphilis, hepatitis screen, ultrasound.
10-12	Doppler detection of fetal heart; CVS, if planned.
11-14	First trimester screen/Nuchal translucency (11–12 weeks is best).
15-18	Second trimester serum screen (sometimes called quad screen); amniocentesis, if planned.
18-22	Ultrasound to evaluate fetal anatomy.
24-28	Glucose screen to check for gestational diabetes.
28-36	Every-other-week visits to check blood pressure, weight, urine protein, and fetal growth.
36-40	Weekly visits to check the same things noted for 28–36 weeks and to assess fetal position. Some practitioners do internal exams to check the cervix; some do a vaginal/rectal culture for group B streptococcus.
40-??	Twice-weekly visits to assure fetal well-being.
