Women's Health & PregnancyAbout this service
Antenatal check-ups in Windhoek at Eastgate Clinic follow you and your baby through pregnancy with regular visits to your doctor in our rooms. These appointments monitor your health and your baby's growth, check your blood pressure and weight, and give you a chance to ask questions as your pregnancy progresses. Your first visit is usually the most thorough, confirming dates and general health, with follow-up visits scheduled at appropriate intervals afterwards.
Whether this is your first pregnancy or you have been through it before, regular antenatal care helps pick up any concerns early. Book your first check-up with us to begin your pregnancy journey with proper support.
