Carbon Monoxide

A simple breath test at every midwife appointment can ensure you're not being exposed to dangerous levels of Carbon Monoxide, which may harm you and your baby. Find out more from this independent resource.

Care during your pregnancy

Congratulations if you have just found out that you are pregnant. To ensure you get the tailored care you need throughout your pregnancy, you must contact your Midwife at your local Maternity Unit as soon as possible preferably before 8 weeks of pregnancy.

You will be given an appointment with a midwife to discuss your medical history, social history, mental health, and pregnancy history to ensure your antenatal plan of care is tailored to your needs.

Planning your care

Our friendly team of experienced Midwives will work with you to develop an individualised plan of care. We offer you choice in the type of care you receive, and involvement in the decisions affecting your pregnancy, childbirth and care after your baby is born.

To help this process you will have a named Midwife/Obstetrician throughout your pregnancy.

We follow the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines to ensure you receive the best standard of care during your pregnancy and birth.
