I’m pregnant - what should I do now?

Pregnant? Tell your midwife.

A midwife ensures that you get the best possible care — tailored to your individual needs.

You should make an appointment with a midwife as soon as possible after finding out that you are pregnant. Getting in early means your midwife can help plan the best care for you and your baby.

Contacting a midwife early in your pregnancy also lets you benefit from the full range of pregnancy screening options available to you.

If you are uncertain about whether you want to continue with the pregnancy, you should make an appointment to see your GP, who will be able to provide the information and support you require to make a decision.

Find a midwife near you

Finding a midwife to help you through your pregnancy is easy. If you know you are pregnant, visit your GP practice and ask for an appointment with your midwife.
