Labs & Ultrasound

Comprehensive Testing for a Healthy Pregnancy

At Beachside Midwifery, we prioritize informed care while honoring your body’s natural processes. As part of our holistic midwifery model, we offer access to essential lab work and ultrasounds to monitor your health and ensure a thriving pregnancy.

Why Are Labs & Ultrasounds Important?

Routine testing provides valuable insights into your pregnancy and helps guide your care plan. Whether confirming a healthy pregnancy, checking vital levels, or assessing your baby’s development, our approach ensures you receive the right care at the right time while maintaining autonomy over your choices.

Lab Testing Services

We offer in-home and lab-based testing for:
- Routine prenatal bloodwork (blood type, iron levels, immunity, and more)
- Gestational diabetes screening (with natural glucose options available)
- Complete blood count (CBC) and nutrient panels
- Rh factor and antibody testing
- Group B Strep (GBS) screening
- Thyroid and hormone testing
- Additional individualized testing as needed

We discuss every test thoroughly, so you feel confident in your choices and understand your results.

Ultrasound Services

While midwifery care focuses on a hands-on, intuitive approach to pregnancy, ultrasounds can be an important tool for monitoring fetal development when necessary. We offer:
- Early pregnancy confirmation (if needed)
- Anatomy scans (typically around 18-22 weeks)
- Growth and well-being ultrasounds (if clinically indicated)
- Placenta location and position checks
- Post-dates assessments (if you go beyond your due date)

Your Choice, Your Care

We believe in personalized, client-centered care, ensuring you have access to the tests and screenings that align with your needs while maintaining your autonomy and informed decision-making.
