The Antenatal Clinic is lead by the midwife. This clinic provides the opportunity to find out all you want to know about your pregnancy. The primary aim of antenatal care is to monitor your health during pregnancy, as well as the health and development of your baby. It can help predict possible problems with your pregnancy or birth, so action can be taken to avoid or treat them.

Home pregnancy test kits are usually very reliable so it is not normally necessary to have a doctor repeat the test to confirm that you are pregnant. However, you should make an appointment to see the midwife when you become pregnant. During the course of your pregnancy, you may be seen by a variety of people – doctors and midwives – who will all have an input into the care of you and your baby.

A booking-in appointment is usually made at around 12 weeks with the Midwife at home. You will be asked a number of questions, about your health, your family history and any previous pregnancies. The aim is to get a good basic idea of your health and your pregnancy so far. You will be asked to give a blood and urine sample at this appointment.

Throughout your pregnancy, you will have a number of consultations either at home, at the surgery or at the hospital. Some of the routine checks that may be performed include:

Questions on your babys movements

Palpation – feeling your tummy

Listening to your baby’s heart

Taking a urine sample test

Swelling in your legs, arms & face

Questions about how you feel

Whilst pregnancy can be a fantastic time, it can also bring worries – we and our midwives are here to help you through the experience.

Other NHS Organisations - We may refer you to other NHS Organisations in the future using our clinical system (TPP SystmOne). If they use the same clinical system on their computers as we do, they are able to see your full electronic medical record, unless you do not give permission to sharing.

Do you consent to sharing your record via TPP SystmOne?

Yes

No

If you do not give permission to sharing, a printed summary of your past relevant medical history will always be sent with any referral letter to another organisation.

Summary Care Records (SCR) - Your Summary Care Record consists of a list of your medications, allergies and adverse reactions, which are extracted from your GP record onto a central/national data base, known as the Spine. In time, this may be expanded to include further medical information. The government has decided that patients’ records will be uploaded UNLESS THEY OPT OUT. We do not offer guidance either way but Opt-Out forms are available at https://www.digital.nhs.uk/services/summary -care -records -scr . If you decide to opt out you should complete the form and provide us with a copy, which we will scan into your record and then remove consent to SCR.

Occasionally members of the CCG /other medical bodies need to look at medical records to verify our procedures. All questions are treated confidentially but if you do not want your records used in this way please tick below.

I do not want my records to be used in this way.
