Advice you can trust

Your pregnancy

The Pregnancy and baby guide has 200 pages packed with information on pregnancy and babies, plus easy-to-use drop-down menus to help you find the articles you're looking for. From taking a pregnancy test to coping with toddler tantrums, this guide offers everything you need to know about having a healthy pregnancy and looking after your baby, including what to eat (and what not to eat), midwife checks, scans, labour, birth and beyond. 

Make a birth plan

A birth plan is a record of what you would like to happen during your labour and after the birth. You can go to the birth plan page to print out a blank birth plan to discuss with your midwife and fill in by hand, or to fill in a birth plan online, save it and print it out. You can also find out about all the things to think about, including where you'd like to give birth, pain relief options, and your baby after the birth.
