        Full Care Visit Schedule
        On average we carry out around 14 ante natal visits, provide 4-6 weeks on call and around 10/12 postnatal visits over four weeks.
        However, our visits to support you during pregnancy, birth and the immediate post-natal period are tailored to your specific needs. We will work with you to ensure that we provide the appropriate support for your circumstances. However, to give you an idea of what this may involve we provide a basic visit framework below for your information. Telephone support is always available in between visits; antenatal visits are made at your convenience and usually carried out at your home or work place.

        • Initial Booking Visit
        • From week 12 up to week 28 of your pregnancy:
               Visits will usually be every four weeks.
        • From week 28 up to week 36:
                Visits will usually be every two weeks.
        • From week 36 to week 40:
               Visits will usually be weekly.
        • We are on call for you 24 hours a day from the beginning of week 38 until the birth.
        • Week 41 to the birth of your baby:
        Visits will usually occur once at 41 weeks and twice during week 42. Alternate visits for monitoring to a maternity unit will also be offered if your pregnancy continues over 42 weeks and you have decided against induction.

        After the birth of your baby:

        We will visit you daily for the first 5 days and then once or twice a week for 4 weeks depending on your needs.

        There may be times throughout your pregnancy that it is appropriate to have more or less visits as your needs dictate. Our visits are over and above any hospital, scan or Doctor appointments you may choose or need to have.
