Antenatal Care

Picture
We provide on-going care for you and your baby after becoming pregnant. Antenatal care is the care you receive from healthcare professionals during your pregnancy. You will be offered a series of appointments with a doctor or midwife in the practice.
On your first Ante-Natal visit, you will be given a pregnancy pack which contains information and advice on different aspects of pregnancy, birth and caring for your baby.
Cashel Medical Centre is registered with the HSE Maternity and Infant Care Scheme. This scheme provides an agreed programme of care, free of charge, to all expectant mothers who are ordinarily resident in Ireland and to her new born baby six weeks after birth. If the expectant mother chooses to avail of services under the scheme she will be under the care of both a General Practitioner (GP) of the expectant mother’s choice and a hospital obstetrician.
Picture
On your first pregnancy, the GP provides an initial examination, if possible before 12 weeks, and a further 5 examinations during the pregnancy [usually at weeks 24, 28 (except in case of first pregnancy), 30, 34, 37 and 39], which are alternated with visits to the maternity unit/hospital. The schedule of visits may be changed by your GP and/or hospital obstetrician, depending on your individual situation. For subsequent pregnancies, you will have an initial examination and a further 6 examinations.
If you have a significant illness, e.g. diabetes or hypertension, you may have up to 5 additional visits to the GP.

Care for other illnesses which you may have at this time, but which are not related to your pregnancy, is not covered by the Scheme.
 
After the birth, the GP will examine the baby at 2 weeks and both mother and baby at 6 weeks.
