Antenatal care is shared between the doctor, midwife and the hospital, normally Frimley Park or the Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford.

 

The midwifery service includes antenatal clinics, parent craft classes, hospital tours and many other opportunities to discuss your pregnancy and childbirth, as well as home visits after your baby is born, to assist you with any problems that may arise. The Frimley Park Hospital Team also aims to be with the majority of mothers at the time of their delivery. The midwives will contact you at home to arrange a first visit. Following this, the midwives can be contacted via our Reception.

Pregnant or planning a pregnancy and a smoker? It can sometimes help if you have someone you can talk to. A confidential, free one to one service is available if you are pregnant. You can register by ringing the NHS Pregnancy Smoking Helpline 0800 169 9 169. With a counsellor you can plan how often you want support throughout your pregnancy and after your baby is born. It is a special service geared to the needs and concerns of pregnant women, because we know it helps to have a friendly, helpful voice giving you advice during what can be a stressful time.
