What is needed for the first prenatal visit?

Patient's question:

I had always been completely focused on my career, but last week I unexpectedly found out I was pregnant. After discussing it with my husband, I decided to have the baby. My friend suggested that I go for a prenatal check-up first, and then have a follow-up prenatal examination a few months later. I want to know what is needed for the first prenatal examination?

Doctor's answer:

If you are doing your first prenatal check-up, you can first go to the hospital to set up a medical record. Generally, the first prenatal check-up usually requires blood tests, and you need to fast. Additionally, you should not defecate or drink water after 8:00 PM the night before. Relax your mindset, and in the future, it is also important to follow the schedule for prenatal check-ups. During the early stages of pregnancy, pay close attention to getting adequate rest.
