What to Expect at Your First Prenatal Visit

Your first prenatal visit does more than confirm the pregnancy, and it is where your care gets personalized. Abigail Rizk, CNM/MSN, Clinical Practice Director at BirthCare HealthCare and Division Chief of the Division of Midwifery at University of Utah Health, walks through what to expect: the bedside ultrasound, the panel of prenatal labs, genetic testing options, and how to come prepared with your family health history. She also explains how the midwifery team connects you to specialists in behavioral health, maternal-fetal medicine, and more, so your care fits your specific situation from day one.
