Timeline of Care: From Early Weeks to Full-Term Expectancy
The journey through pregnancy unfolds in a structured timeline of care. Initial visits, starting at 4-week intervals, gradually progress to more frequent check-ups, reaching intervals of 1-2 weeks as the pregnancy advances. Fetal imaging through ultrasonography becomes a routine part of these visits, ensuring not only the normal development of the unborn child but also providing the opportunity for parents to determine the gender if desired. This timeline of care offers a reassuring structure, keeping expectant parents informed and engaged throughout the entire pregnancy process.

On average, expectant parents can anticipate around 13 prenatal visits, each serving as a vital checkpoint in the process. Dr. Fong’s comprehensive approach ensures that not only are medical needs addressed, but that the emotional and informational aspects of the journey are also tended to. This anticipation of parenthood is enriched through regular visits, fostering a connection between the healthcare provider, the parents, and the evolving life within the womb.
