What To Expect

What You Can Expect

There is no occasion like giving birth, and we’re here to support you through that special time, from routine checks through to developmental tests and then the magic of birth itself.

Why Choose Kate Sheppard?

Our group of friendly and experienced midwives will provide you with safe and professional care throughout your pregnancy, labour and birth and up to four to six weeks post-natally.

Dr Ammar Al-Abid is our Obstetrician for expecting mums wanting the added security of an on-hand specialist during pregnancy and birth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, of course you can choose who you wish to look after you (depending on each midwife’s availability).

Get in touch with us as soon as you know you’re pregnant. Generally you will have your first midwifery appointment at 8-10 weeks. At this visit she will explain how she will look after you and what early blood tests and scans are available as part of early pregnancy screening.

Your midwife will be your Lead Maternity Carer (LMC) and will be your day-to-day point of contact as the weeks and months progress. Each midwife will have a different approach, and it is best to talk to your individual carer.

Midwifery care is free of charge in New Zealand, providing that you meet Ministry of Health criteria.
