Maternity

  • Antenatal care

    Antenatal care is the care and help you receive from health professionals during the course of your pregnancy. It is important you take good care of your own health and that of your unborn baby during pregnancy.

    As soon as you find out you are pregnant, you should get in touch with us to find out more information on the services and support that are available to you.

  • Emergency contraception

    hours then you may need emergency contraception, and the sooner you take it the better.

    Emergency contraception is available free from Contraception and Sexual Health Services, some GPs (family doctors) and most pharmacies (chemists), even if you’re under 16.

    If you’ve had unprotected sex or your condom failed, it is also really important to consider your risk for sexually transmitted infections and to think about your long-term contraception needs. Please phone the surgery to book an emergency appointment.

  • Neo-natal Care

    Some newborn babies are released from hospital without a detailed examination. If this is the case, please contact the surgery.

  • Postnatal care

    Postnatal care extends for between 6-8 weeks after the birth of your baby. During this period, routine checks are carried out by the health visitor and you and your baby’s recovery is monitored.

    During your postnatal care you will find out about feeding, potty training, illnesses, safety and more. You will be able to ask your health visitor questions and request advice.

  • Preconception advice

    If you are planning to have a baby or you need to know more information about how to look after yourself and your unborn baby, please book an appointment with your GP.

    We can provide you with all the information you need to know to have a happy and healthy pregnancy.
