Assessing you and your baby’s health throughout your pregnancy is vital midwifery care. Independent private antenatal visits are in your home. I can conduct physical checks, develop a birthing plan with you and help you consider life with a baby. Tell me your pronouns so that my language is appropriate.
Where do you plan to labour and birth your baby? How can I support you to achieve your aims. If complexities exist how might that impact on you ... what plans are right for YOU.
My job isn’t done once you have birthed your baby and placenta. I will stay with you for an agreed length of time to provide any assistance you might need tor to assist with initial breast/chest/bottle feeding. During this time health checks can be completed as necessary then a plan made for future visits. I am trained to complete the newborn initial physical examination (NIPE).
Feeding Assessments
Holistic Feeding Assessment including oral examination for babies and infants up to one year of age. A sustainable strategy will be developed with you. Release of Tongue Tie where appropriate .
.
Care can start as soon as you are pregnant. If you have had previous complexities we can also discuss possible options during the time that you are trying to conceive.
Understanding options
and why 'guidelines' may or may not be right for you. I support informed choice.
Knowledge is power and the power lies with you.
Did you know that you can access blood tests at home and private scans within packages of care.
These blood tests can include:
NIPT - using the Safe Test
Fetal DNA - from mothers blood if she is D negative
Iron Profiles
Full blood counts
Blood Group and Antibodies
Glucose Tolerance Tests - at home
Tell me where you plan to birth your baby. I have decades of experience supporting hundreds of home births.
I will support you, in labour, as you work to birth your baby and placenta if you are at home. In your birth-pool or on dry land.
I can also provide support in hospital if that is your preferred place of birth.
