Vaccinations during pregnancy that are expressly recommended by the RKI and the Professional Association of Gynecologists are against flu and whooping cough. Other vaccinations are also possible and can be useful.
Testing of the embryo for chromosomal abnormalities: trisomy 13, 18, 21 (Down syndrome). For this purpose, blood is taken from the pregnant woman.
This examination measures the blood flow in the placenta and in the child.
The child’s heart rate is recorded for half an hour. This examination provides information about the well-being of the child.
We are legally obliged to inform you about the latest medical developments, regardless of the fact that certain services are not covered by statutory health insurance.
That is why we also offer you the following services – more security for you and your child:

Up to 10% of pregnant women develop gestational diabetes. 20% of this can only be discovered via the increased fasting blood sugar, which is not measured with the small OGTT.
20% of all people have streptococci in their normal skin flora. this has no disease value. However, during birth, it can be transmitted to the newborn and cause life-threatening infections. Therefore, all pregnant women who have been diagnosed with streptococci receive antibiotics during childbirth.
