Pregnancy

If you are planning a pregnancy or have just tested positive, the nurses are available by appointment to provide you with advice about Folic Acid, smoking cessation, diet, exercise, and alcohol during pregnancy.

Following confirmation of your pregnancy you can book yourself into the local midwife’s service by calling 03033 305 232.

After 20 weeks of pregnancy all ladies will be offered a Whooping Cough vaccination to help protect your baby from this infectious disease.

During September to March all pregnant ladies will be offered a vaccination against influenza.

Following the birth of your child you will be offered a post-natal examination with the doctor (usually coincides with your child's 8-week check and 1st immunisations).
