Medical Care During Pregnancy
Prenatal visits with your healthcare provider during pregnancy helps to ensure the health of you and your baby. During these visits, your healthcare provider will do a physical exam, order lab tests, and check the health of the growing baby.
Lab tests might be ordered at your first visit, including:
- A complete blood count (CBC): This screens for blood problems such as anemia (low blood count).
- RPR: This test screens for syphilis (a sexually transmitted disease).
- Rubella: This tests for immunity (protection) against German measles.
- HBsAg: This tests for hepatitis B (a liver infection).
- Urinalysis: This tests for kidney disease or bladder infections.
- Type and screen blood test: This determines your blood type and Rh factor, an antigen or protein on the surface of blood cells that can cause an immune system response.
- HIV screening: Current recommendations are that all pregnant patients be screened for HIV.
