In partnership with the Midwifery Team, we provide full antenatal and postnatal care.
Uncomplicated pregnancies for first-time mums, usually receive 10 appointments throughout their pregnancy and one appointment after the baby is born. If you have had a baby before you may require fewer appointments.
On becoming pregnant you see your usual GP. If you have an uncomplicated obstetric and medical history your GP will refer you to a community midwife. You will see your GP at 25 weeks of pregnancy and again at 38 weeks.
If you have a more complex pregnancy or medical history you will still receive the same number of midwife appointments, but you may also be referred to see a consultant, at the hospital.
