Prenatal and Postnatal Care in Gregory Hills
The weeks before and after birth are critical for both mother and baby. Dr Nader Bakhit provides dedicated prenatal care to ensure you are physically and emotionally prepared for birth, and thorough postnatal care to support your recovery and wellbeing in the weeks that follow.
At his consulting rooms in Gregory Hills and Liverpool, Dr Bakhit offers continuity of care throughout this important period, ensuring you feel supported and confident at every step.
Prenatal Care Before Birth
Late Pregnancy Monitoring
In the final weeks of pregnancy, more frequent appointments allow Dr Bakhit to closely monitor your baby’s growth and position, your blood pressure, and overall wellbeing. Growth scans and fetal wellbeing assessments may be arranged as needed.
Birth Preparation
Dr Bakhit discusses your birth plan in detail, helping you understand your options for labour and delivery. This includes hospital admission planning, pain management preferences, and what to expect on the day.
Managing Late Pregnancy Concerns
Conditions such as gestational diabetes, elevated blood pressure, and reduced fetal movements require careful management in the final weeks. Dr Bakhit provides close monitoring and timely intervention when needed to ensure the best outcomes for you and your baby.
Postnatal Care After Birth
Six-Week Postnatal Check
The six-week postnatal check is an important milestone in your recovery. Dr Bakhit will assess your physical healing, review any surgical wounds, screen for postnatal depression and anxiety, and discuss your ongoing health needs.
Breastfeeding Support
While Dr Bakhit does not provide lactation consulting directly, he can refer you to specialist lactation support services and address any medical concerns related to breastfeeding.
Postnatal Mental Health
Emotional wellbeing after birth is just as important as physical recovery. Dr Bakhit screens for postnatal depression and anxiety and can connect you with appropriate mental health support and services.
Contraception After Birth
Discussing future family planning is an important part of postnatal care. Dr Bakhit provides contraceptive advice and can arrange long-acting options such as IUDs when you are ready.
