Prenatal care and medical examinations

After you have used the ovulation test and got an affirmation that you are pregnant, you need to consult a doctor for a variety of medical examinations. You should take the ovulation test and the subsequent examinations very seriously. Meet all the deadlines and attend all check-ups in order to ensure that your pregnancy proceeds without complications. In the following paragraphs you will see which examinations are necessary in the coming months:

From using the ovulation test you have already some experience in the handling of urine tests. Now the doctor tests your urine for sugar, proteins and infections, he makes a smear test and a blood analysis. These will be the first results to be noted in your maternity log. You need to bring your maternity log to all of the following exams:

In the 2nd month

you need to see the doctor for a routine check and for a very special exam: you will see the first ultra sonogram of your baby.

Between the 12th and 14th week of pregnancy (3rd month)

you can already check the nuchal translucency, a liquid film in the neck area of your baby. Additionally the doctor controls two distinct proteins in the maternal blood. With the help of a computer programme the doctor can analyse the individual risk for a genetic disease of the child with an accuracy of 90%- he only needs the age of the mother and the data from the antecedent examinations.

Between the 14th and 16th week of pregnancy (3-4th month)

your doctor might want to do an amniocentesis. Always taken when the mother is older than 35 years, but also when other high-risk factors apply, it serves to detect any genetical disorders, metabolic disorders and disorders of the brain, backbone and spinal cord.

Between the 19th and 22nd week of pregnancy (5th month)

your doctor makes a second ultra sonogram. If you are lucky you can now see the gender of your unborn child. If you have successfully got pregnant with OvuQUICK, please feel free to inform us about your happiness. We are delighted to hear about every single boy or girl that was born at least partly because of our “help”.

Between the 29th and 32nd week of pregnancy (7-8th month)

you will have done the third ultra sonogram. Those patients who bear the blood type rhesus negative will receive an injection. This prevents eventual development of harming antibodies, so that your unborn child and possible following pregnancies are safe.

From the 8th month onwards

you should see your doctor on a regular basis of every second week.

In the 9th month of pregnancy

your doctor wants to meet with you weekly. Generally he or she will do a smear test for bacteria (e.g. B-streptococci) or fungal infections in order to ensure that your unborn child does not contract these.

The OvuQUICK team wishes you all the best during your pregnancy!
