Midwife consultation
Sometimes you need more than medical checkups – a safe space for questions, concerns, wishes, and issues that are on your mind. I will also set aside about an hour to address you and your family's needs.
Possible content:
Discussion of the last weeks of pregnancy (approx. from week 36) and individual measures for optimal birth preparation
(Not every measure is suitable for every woman – together we will look at what makes sense for you and what your body needs.)Individual advice or prophylaxis for pregnancy discomforts (e.g. nausea, back pain, sleep problems)
Mental strengthening and confidence in one's own path
Organization of the postpartum period
Questions about becoming a parent
Even if you have all your medical check-ups done by your gynecologist, midwife consultation can be valuable – especially in high-risk pregnancies, if you are looking for additional support, information or exchange on non-medical topics.
Cost coverage
One midwife consultation per pregnancy is covered by basic health insurance. In the case of a high-risk pregnancy, additional consultations may be covered by health insurance. Further appointments can be covered by supplemental insurance or paid for privately. Privately paid appointments are charged at CHF 120 per hour.
