Once you have discovered that you are pregnant, you will be asked to make an appointment with the midwifery team when you are between 8 and 10 weeks pregnant. These appointments are run by midwives. Please allow approximately one hour for these appointments. Please telephone 01761 417278 if your postcode is BA2 OR 01249 456467 if your post code is BA1, to make the appointment. You will also need your NHS number when you telephone.
The midwife will discuss care during your pregnancy, antenatal classes and your chosen place of delivery. You will then receive your own notes. The midwife will also arrange your ultrasound scan.
At each visit to the midwife your blood pressure, urine and growth of your baby will be checked.
If you have any concerns, regarding your pregnancy please call 01761 412107
