Antenatal Clinic
Antenatal care also provides women and their families with appropriate information and advice for a healthy pregnancy, safe childbirth, and postnatal recovery, including care of the newborn, promotion of early, exclusive breastfeeding, and assistance with deciding on future pregnancies in order to improve pregnancy outcomes.
We offer a multi-disciplinary approach to ensuring the health and safety of the mother and the unborn child throughout the exciting period of pregnancy. The Antenatal Clinic is administered by Obstetricians/Gynecologists and experienced midwives who provide comprehensive care to mothers from conception, all through pregnancy until delivery.
Through this form of preventive health care, women can learn from skilled health personnel about healthy behaviors during pregnancy, better understand warning signs during pregnancy and childbirth, and receive social, emotional and psychological support at this critical time in their lives.Through antenatal care, pregnant women can also access micronutrient supplementation, treatment for hypertension to prevent eclampsia, as well as immunization against tetanus. Antenatal care can also provide HIV testing and medications to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. In areas where malaria is endemic, health personnel can provide pregnant women with medications and insecticide-treated mosquito nets to help prevent this debilitating and sometimes deadly disease.
If we cannot assist, we can provide referrals or advice about the type of practitioner you require. We are committed to being the region’s premier healthcare network by providing patient-centered care that inspires clinical and service excellence, making us the first and best choice for our patients, employees, physicians, employers, volunteers and communities.

10 Ways to stay healthy during pregnancy
Maintain a Healthy diet
Maintaining a healthy diet is essential during pregnancy. Your baby needs the sufficient nutrients to grow healthy. You are encouraged to eat more fruits and vegetables, whole grains, calcium-rich foods and foods low in saturated fat. Make sure you avoid certain foods like raw or undercooked food, unpasteurized cheese and milk, and fish that are high in mercury.
Don’t Forget your daily Vitamins
Make sure you take your prenatal vitamin prescribed to you on a daily basis. This is to ensure that your baby is getting the right amount of nutrients needed to grow well.
Drink lots of water
As a pregnant woman, you will need more water than you normally need. Aim at drinking not less than 4 liters a day.
Book and attend your antenatal checkups
It is best to register for an antenatal plan at your clinic.
Health Habits
Make sure you quit alcohol and smoking if you are planning to get pregnant, during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Alcohol consumption increases the risk of having a baby with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder which causes abnormal facial features with severe behavioral and learning disabilities. Smoking is also associated with increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome, preterm birth and miscarriage.
Stay Active
Staying active in pregnancy is encouraged and can help maintain a smooth pregnancy and delivery. Make sure you confirm with your doctor to find out which exercise is best for you.
Get vaccinated!
Some vaccines are recommended during pregnancy to prevent you from getting sick and increase any risk of complications to your and the baby. Some recommended vaccines include the Tetanus Toxoid and Flu shots. Ask your doctor about your vaccination status.
Get enough sleep
It is important that you get enough sleep (7-9 hours per day) daily. It is advised to sleep on your left side as this improves blood flow.
Try to reduce Stress
To maintain a healthy pregnancy and better birth outcomes, it is encouraged to avoid stressful situations as much as possible. Try to seek help from family members and friends when needed.
Plan your pregnancy
Make sure you are healthy before you plan to get pregnant. It is also important to consider your age before getting pregnant. Increased risk of having a premature birth is often associated with pregnancy earlier than 16 years and older than 40 of age.
