Pregnancy

Early access to maternity services

As soon as you think you are pregnant, you should make an appointment to see your midwife or GP. The earlier you do this, the better. You can self-refer directly to a midwife by ringing your local antenatal clinic or by visiting the hospital website and filling in the self-referral form.
