In addition to three free doctor visits a year, Labour is promising if elected, pregnant women will be eligible for free maternity scans.
The offer will be part of its proposed 'Medicard' scheme.
"Women and their families shouldn't have to worry about money when it comes to making sure they and their babies are okay," leader Chris Hipkins said in a statement on Tuesday.
"For many families, pregnancy comes with enough costs and stress already. A Labour government will ease that pressure by making the scans they need free."
