Antenatal Screening Tests
Having blood tests early on in your pregnancy can help protect you and those close to you. These tests are free.
It is best to have the tests as soon as you know you are pregnant. They are offered to all pregnant women, including those who decide not to continue with the pregnancy.
Routine Blood Tests
Six different tests are currently offered. These are usually carried out at the same time so you only have one set of blood taken. These tests are:
- Blood group and rhesus factor
- Full blood count
- Rubella
- Syphilis
- Hepatitis B
- HIV
