Post Natal Care

Midwives, maternity care assistants and health visitors all come to see you at home with your baby to offer you care and support as required.

Generally, your midwife will arrange visits until your baby is 10 days old, when the health visitor arranges her first visit.

This will be based on your own individual needs and the time can be extended if required. At 6-8 weeks after the birth, a post-natal consultation with your GP will be arranged for you and your baby.
