Obstetrics

Creative paper concept of ovarian cyst

Our women’s health experts at May-Grant OB/GYN have provided obstetric care for over 50 years. We have generations of midwives, nurse practitioners, and physicians ready to help mothers gain the most from obstetric care through scheduled prenatal visits, wellness exams, and pregnancy planning.

What is Obstetrics?

Obstetrics specializes in providing care for women during pregnancy and childbirth. Obstetric visits are essential for women during the first trimester of their pregnancy as they can ensure that you and your baby have the healthiest start possible.

Pregnant women should schedule their first prenatal visit at eight weeks of gestation or two weeks after their first phone call. By contacting us, we can determine how frequently you need to come for prenatal care, depending on your weeks of gestation and your baby’s health. During your prenatal examination, our specialists will perform the following:

  • Medical Questionaire: During the medical questionnaire, our specialists can discuss your concerns about your medical history, family history, and lifestyle habits.
  • Physical & Pelvic Exam: Our team will provide you with a complete physical exam, including a pelvic exam, to diagnose and discuss any pre-existing conditions.
  • Pap Smears: We will perform a pap smear test during your pelvic exam to screen for cervical cancer, chlamydia, and gonorrhea.
  • Blood and Urine Tests: While the urine tests help confirm pregnancy or infection, blood tests will also be performed to determine blood count, blood type, and Rh factor and help screen for HIV, rubella, hepatitis B, and syphilis.

Here’s what a typical prenatal schedule might look like at our practice:

  • Weeks 4 to 28: Once a month
  • Weeks 28 to 36: Every other week
  • Week 36 until birth: Every week
