How long should a pregnant woman have prenatal check-ups?

Patient's question:

How long after getting pregnant is it appropriate to have a prenatal check-up? Because as a high-risk pregnant woman, it is important to pay attention to the health of the child.

Doctor's answer:

Because you are a high-risk pregnant woman, it is recommended to have a prenatal check-up every half month. Throughout the entire pregnancy, it is important to take good care of yourself. During the first prenatal visit, blood tests including complete blood count, blood type, blood sugar, urine routine, liver function, kidney function, hepatitis B surface antigen, HIV, syphilis, and thyroid function should be conducted. An electrocardiogram and magnetic resonance imaging should also be performed. After 28 weeks, monitor fetal movement daily. From 34 weeks onwards, visit the hospital weekly for fetal heart monitoring.
