Congratulations on your pregnancy! This is the start of a really exciting time for you and your family and we want to support you as much as we can

Please make sure you are taking your pregnancy vitamins. If you are not taking these, please start taking them today. These are mainly Folic Acid and Vitamin D supplements which are very important for the baby and your health in pregnancy. Click here for more information

The NHS Website has excellent information on pregnancy.

You need to refer yourself directly to the hospital of your choice to arrange your NHS pregnancy care (also known as Antenatal Care). Please use the E-referral Form links below to refer yourself. Please visit the websites and links of each hospital (found below) for more information to help you make a decision.

Once the referral is made the hospital will contact you for your first antenatal appointment with the midwife after receiving your referral. This usually occurs when you’re ten weeks pregnant.
