Pregnancy: Prenatal Visit Schedule

Overview

As your pregnancy moves along, your prenatal visits will happen more often. So you'll have the chance to get to know your doctor or midwife well.

It's common to see your doctor or midwife:

  • Every 4 weeks until week 28.
  • Every 2 to 3 weeks from weeks 28 to 36.
  • Every week from week 36 to birth.

In some cases, age or a medical problem may mean you'll need to see your doctor or midwife more often.
