Primegala services
Healthy pregnancies are built visit by visit. Our antenatal clinic follows Kenya's recommended schedule of at least eight contacts, so problems are caught early and you're ready for the birth.
The best time to start antenatal care is within the first 12 weeks. Early visits confirm how far along you are, check for anaemia, infections and blood pressure problems, and start the supplements your baby needs. Every visit after that builds on the first.
