You could get a one-off payment of £500 to help towards the costs of having a child. This is known as a Sure Start Maternity Grant.

You usually qualify for the grant if both of the following apply:

you’re expecting your first child, or you’re expecting a multiple birth (such as twins) and have children already

you or your partner already get certain benefits

You must claim the grant within 11 weeks of the baby’s due date or within 6 months after the baby’s birth.

You do not have to pay the grant back and it will not affect your other benefits or tax credits.

Your first appointment

Once you decide that you would like to have your baby with us we will arrange your first appointment with a midwife and together you will start planning your antenatal care. This appointment is known as your booking appointment and will usually take place before you are 13 weeks pregnant. At your appointment you will be given the contact details of your named midwife who will have overall responsibility for co-ordinating your pregnancy care and supporting your choices.

The booking appointment will take place at your local GP surgery or children's centre, in your home or in one of our antenatal clinics. At this appointment the midwife will take a detailed medical and social history, including details of any previous pregnancies. At the appointment you can discuss whether you would prefer to have your baby at home, at one of our birth centres or on one of our delivery suites. You will also discuss whether you would like to have any antenatal screening tests.

Your appointments are flexible and we provide you with a pregnancy planner to guide you through your pregnancy. Please bring the planner with you to your subsequent appointments.

You will also be given your maternity notes at your booking appointment. You should take them with you when you go to see your midwife, GP or attend the hospital for any reason. These maternity notes are a confidential record of the antenatal care you receive while you are pregnant and you can write in them yourself to comment on aspects of your pregnancy and treatment should you wish. After your baby is born, your notes will be retained by the hospital where you had your baby.

Your antenatal care

Your antenatal care is usually provided by a team of midwives. If everything is normal during your pregnancy, you will follow the routine schedule of antenatal care. Women who have had a baby previously will be seen less frequently, women experiencing complications will be seen more often.

If complications arise or if you have a known medical problem the midwives will refer you to an obstetrician, who will then become the lead professional in your care. The midwife may also refer you to other professional colleagues such as an anaesthetist, physiotherapist, dietician, or psychologist during your pregnancy.

Routine blood tests will be repeated at 28 weeks to check for anaemia and also for antibodies. At 36 weeks you will be asked about your birthing preferences. Please make use of the 'birth plan' section of your notes and discuss your thoughts with your midwife at this appointment.

Women who have previously had a Caesarean section or traumatic birth may be invited to our birth options clinic to explore the birth choices for their current pregnancy.

We also offer a wide range of parent education workshops for women and their partners. Your midwife will provide you with details.

A healthy diet is important for the health and growth of your baby. Click below for some helpful advice and information on foods we would recommend and those to avoid.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Protein provides the building blocks for your baby to grow. Foods in this group include:

Fish

Have no more than 2 portions of oily fish each week. Make one of them an oily fish like salmon, sardines or mackerel.

There are some types of fish you should avoid (raw shellfish, shark, swordfish and marlin) if you're pregnant or trying to conceive.

Eggs

Hen eggs produced under the British Lion Code of Practice (stamped with the red lion) or produced under the Laid in Britain scheme, are considered very low risk for salmonella and safe to eat raw or partially cooked.

Any hen eggs that are not British Lion eggs or produced under the Laid in Britain scheme, should be well cooked. Other types of eggs, including duck, quail and goose eggs, should also be well cooked.

If you have a severely weakened immune system or are on a medically supervised diet prescribed by health professionals, you should cook all eggs thoroughly.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the first signs that labour may soon be starting is a “show”.
This is a blood stained mucous plug which is passed out of the vagina when your cervix (the neck of the womb) begins to change. This is not a reliable sign and not all women see this. For those women who do see a “show” labour may be as much as two weeks away.

The most common indication that labour has begun is the start of contractions. These can range in intensity from mild irritation to strong pain and may be felt down in your back or like waves moving across your abdomen. It is important to time how often these come and for how long they last.

When contractions are regular (coming every 5-10 minutes), and lasting 45-60 seconds, we would advise you to call triage or your personal midwife before coming into hospital. Please bear in mind, it is possible for your labour to be quicker this time round if you have had a baby before.

If your waters break, this may also be a sign that you are going into labour, but it can often happen before your labour starts, when you are not having contractions. Sometimes this can be confused with a loss of urine. If your waters break you may need to be seen and assessed by a midwife. Always call your midwives, or triage, if you feel your waters may have broken.

ALWAYS CALL YOUR MIDWIFE OR TRIAGE IF:

your waters break

you have vaginal bleeding

your baby is moving less than usual

you're less than 37 weeks pregnant and think you might be in labour

These signs mean you need to see a midwife or doctor.

Please click on the above link for more information.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Know the signs

There are several signs that labour might be starting, including:

contractions or tightenings

a "show", when the plug of mucus from your cervix (entrance to your womb, or uterus) comes away

backache

an urge to go to the toilet, which is caused by your baby's head pressing on your bowel

your waters breaking

The early (latent) stage of labour can take some time.

Latent phase of labour

The start of labour is called the latent phase. This is when your cervix becomes soft and thin, and starts opening for your baby to be born. This can take hours or sometimes days.

You'll probably be advised to stay at home during this time. If you go to the hospital or maternity unit, they may suggest you go back home.

Find out more about the stages of labour and what you can do at home during the latent phase.

Call your midwife if you're unsure or worried about anything.

What do contractions feel like

When you have a contraction, your womb tightens and then relaxes. For some people, contractions may feel like extreme period pains.

You may have had contractions during your pregnancy, particularly towards the end. These tightenings are called Braxton Hicks contractions and are usually painless.

Your contractions tend to become longer, stronger and more frequent as your labour progresses. During a contraction, the muscles tighten and the pain increases. If you put your hand on your abdomen, you'll feel it getting harder; when the muscles relax, the pain fades and you will feel the hardness ease.

The contractions are pushing your baby down and opening the entrance to your womb (the cervix), ready for your baby to go through.

Your midwife will probably advise you to stay at home until your contractions become frequent.

Call your midwife or maternity unit for guidance when your contractions are in a regular pattern and:

last at least 60 seconds

come every 5 minutes or

you think you are in labour

Read more information on when to go to hospital

Backache often comes on in labour

You may get backache or a heavy, aching feeling.

A "show" can signal the start of labour

During pregnancy, there's a plug of mucus in your cervix. This mucus comes away just before labour starts, or when in early labour, and it may pass out of your vagina. This sticky, jelly-like pink mucus is called a show.

It may come away in 1 blob or in several pieces. It's pink because it contains a small amount of blood.

If you're losing more blood, it may be a sign something is wrong, so phone your hospital or midwife straight away.

A show indicates that the cervix is starting to open. Labour may quickly follow or may take a few days. Sometimes there is no show.

What happens when my waters break

It's likely your waters will break during labour, but it can also happen before labour starts.

Your baby develops and grows inside a bag of fluid called the amniotic sac. When it's time for your baby to be born, the sac usually breaks and the amniotic fluid drains out through your vagina. This is your waters breaking. Sometimes when you're in labour, a midwife or doctor may offer to break your waters.

If your waters break naturally, you may feel a slow trickle or a sudden gush of water you cannot control. To prepare for this, you could keep a sanitary towel (but not a tampon) handy if you're going out, and put a protective sheet on your bed.

Amniotic fluid is clear and pale. Sometimes it's difficult to tell amniotic fluid from urine. When your waters break, the water may be a little bloodstained to begin with.

Tell your midwife immediately if:

the waters are smelly or coloured

you're losing blood

This could mean you and your baby need urgent attention.

If your waters break before labour starts, call your midwife. Use a sanitary pad (not a tampon) so your midwife can check the colour of the waters.

If labour does not start after your waters break

It's usual to go into labour within 24 hours of the waters breaking. You'll be offered an induction if you do not because, without amniotic fluid, there's an increased risk of infection for your baby.

Until your induction, or if you choose to wait for labour to start naturally, tell your midwife immediately if:

your baby moves less than usual

there's any change in the colour or smell of any fluid coming from your vagina

You should take your temperature every 4 hours when you're awake, and tell your midwife if it's raised. A raised temperature is usually above 37.5C, but you may need to call before this - check with your midwife.

There's no evidence that having a bath or shower after your waters have broken increases your risk of infection, but having sex might.

How to cope when labour begins

At the beginning of labour, you can:

walk or move about, if you feel like it

drink fluids - you may find sports (isotonic) drinks help keep your energy levels up

have a snack, if you feel like it

try any relaxation and breathing exercises you've learned to deal with contractions as they get stronger and more painful - your birth partner can help by doing these with you

have your birth partner rub your back - this can help relieve pain

take paracetamol according to the instructions on the packet - paracetamol is safe to take in labour

have a warm bath

Find out what happens during labour and birth, and what you can do for pain relief in the early stages of labour.

One of our community midwives will either visit or ring you the day following your discharge from hospital to check on you and your baby. The next visit will generally be on day 5, when we check your baby's weight and complete the Newborn Blood Spot Screening if you are happy for them to have it. Information on this test can be found here.

Your midwife will then set the next visit based on the needs of you and your baby.
These visits might be at home or in one of our postnatal clinics.
We will usually see you and your baby until day 14-28, after which time your care is handed over to the health visiting team.

The safest cot is a clear cot

The safest cot for a baby is a clear cot. That means removing anything that isn't essential. Babies need just two items in their cot:

It's important to remove anything that isn't essential because items such as toys, blankets and bumpers could cover their face and obstruct their breathing.

When preparing your baby's sleep space, remember:

No pillows or duvets

No cot bumpers

No soft toys or comforters

No weighted or bulky bedding

No products designed to keep your baby in one sleeping position, such as wedges or straps

No pods or nests, rolled up towels or anything soft placed on top of the mattress.

Safer sleep overview - The Lullaby Trust

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
An easy guide to practicing safer sleep for your baby and reducing the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS, or cot death).

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It is recommended that you avoid travelling in cars with pre-term and young babies for long distances. Research into the link between car seats and SIDS found young babies may be at risk of breathing difficulties if they sleep in a seated position for too long.

If your trip involves driving for long periods of time, you should stop for frequent breaks. This will allow you to check on your baby, take them out of the car seat and let them stretch and move around.

Ideally, a second adult should travel in the back of the car with your baby, or if travelling alone use a mirror to keep an eye on your baby. If your baby changes their position and slumps forward, then you should immediately stop, take them out of the car seat and sit them upright before continuing on your journey.

It is essential for safety that babies travel in a rearward-facing baby seats. Rearward-facing seats provide greater protection for the baby's head, neck and spine than forward-facing seats.

Babies should not sleep in car seats for long periods

Car seats are designed to keep babies safe while travelling, not as a main sleeping place. Car seats should only be used for transport and not as an alternative for cots or high chairs. It's OK for your baby to fall asleep in a car seat when travelling, but they should be taken out as soon as you get to your destination, and placed onto a firm, flat surface to sleep.

Overheating

Babies that get too hot are at a greater risk of SIDS. We advise removing any hats or outdoor clothing such as snowsuits and coats once your baby is in the car. The best way to check your baby isn't getting too hot is to feel their tummy or back of their neck. If their skin feels clammy or sweaty they are too hot, so remove a layer of clothing.

Make sure you have the right car seat for your baby's weight and it is fitted properly (many shops will help with this).

It is recommended that you do not buy or use a second-hand car seat as you cannot be certain of its history. It could have been involved in an accident and the damage may not be visible.

Car seats must conform to safety standards - United Nations standard, ECE Regulation 44.04 (or R 44.03) or to the new i-size regulation, R129. Look for the 'E' mark label on the seat.

Car seats and SIDS FAQs

Are babies at a greater risk of SIDS in a car seat?

Click here to open this question

Avoid travelling in cars with pre-term and young babies for long distances. Research published in 2016 by the University of Bristol looked at the health effects on babies of travelling in car seats. The study found pre-term and young babies may be at risk of breathing difficulties if travelling in an upright position in car seats for a long period of time.

All births in England, Wales and Northern Ireland must be registered within 42 days of the child being born.

You should do this at the local register office for the area where the baby was born or at the hospital before the mother leaves. The hospital will tell you if you can register the birth there.

If you cannot register the birth in the area where the baby was born, you can go to another register office and they will send your details to the correct office.

Information you need when registering a birth

When registering the birth, you should know:

place and date of the birth

name, surname and sex of the baby

parents' names, surnames and address

places and dates of parents' birth

date of parents' marriage or civil partnership

parents' jobs

mother's maiden surname

You might not need to give all of this information, depending on who is registering the birth.

What you should take

You should take at least one form of identification when you go to the register office. You can use:

passport

birth certificate

deed poll

driving licence

proof of address (for example, a utility bill)

Council Tax bill

marriage or civil partnership certificate

You should also take your child's personal child health record or 'red book' as some registrars may ask to see it.

If you're going to the register office on your own, you may need proof of paternity from the other parent before you give their details.

After the birth is registered

Once you've registered the birth, you may be able to claim:

Mindfulness is a technique you can learn which involves noticing what's happening in the present moment, without judgement. You might take notice and be aware of your mind, body or surroundings. The technique has roots in Buddhism and meditation, but you don't have to be spiritual, or have any particular beliefs, to try it.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding is well established as one of the key determinants of infant and maternal health.

Breastfeeding is good for your baby as:

breast milk is the only natural food designed for your baby

breastfeeding protects your baby from infections and diseases

breast milk is the right temperature for your baby

breastfeeding can build a strong physical and emotional bond between you and your baby.

Breastfeeding is good for mums as:

breastfeeding lowers your risk of breast and ovarian cancer

breastfeeding naturally uses up to 500 calories a day

breast milk is free and available whenever and wherever your baby needs a feed

breastfeeding can help to build a strong physical and emotional bond between you and your baby

breastfeeding can give you a great sense of achievement.

We provide a comprehensive range of workshops for women around infant feeding. Please ask your midwife for information.
Breastfeeding videos
UNICEF and the World Health Organization have created a range of helpful videos on breastfeeding as part of the Baby Friendly Initiative.

The Baby Friendly Initiative

The Baby Friendly Initiative was set up in 1992 by the World Health Organisation and UNICEF to recognise hospitals that enable mothers to make an informed choice about infant feeding and to be supported in that choice. The Royal Free trust has been awarded the prestigious Baby Friendly Award and in 2016 in recognition of our commitment in providing the highest standards of care around infant feeding and relationship building.

Find out more about the Baby Friendly Initiative.

The flu jab will help protect both you and your baby.

There is good evidence that pregnant women have a higher chance of developing complications if they get flu, particularly in the later stages of pregnancy.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It's recommended that all pregnant women have the flu vaccine, whatever stage of pregnancy they're at. It's free for pregnant women.

Why are pregnant women advised to have the flu vaccine?

A flu jab will help protect both you and your baby.

There is good evidence that pregnant women have a higher chance of developing complications if they get flu, particularly in the later stages of pregnancy.

One of the most common complications of flu is bronchitis, a chest infection that can become serious and develop into pneumonia.

If you have flu while you're pregnant, it could cause your baby to be born prematurely or have a low birthweight, and may even lead to stillbirth or death.

Is the flu vaccine safe in pregnancy?

Yes. Studies have shown that it's safe to have a flu vaccine during any stage of pregnancy, from the first few weeks up to your expected due date.

Women who have had a flu vaccine while pregnant also pass some protection on to their babies, which lasts for the first few months of their lives.

It's safe for women who are breastfeeding to have a flu vaccine if they're eligible (for example, because of a long-term health condition).

When should I have the flu jab?

The best time to have a flu vaccine is in the autumn, before flu starts circulating. If you've missed this time, you can be vaccinated later in the winter although it's best to get it earlier.

Do not worry if you find that you're pregnant later in the flu season - you can have the vaccine then if you have not already had it.

How do I get the flu vaccine?

Contact your midwife or GP surgery to find out where you can get a flu vaccine. It's a good idea to get vaccinated as soon as possible after the vaccine becomes available in September.

In some areas, you can get a flu vaccine at an antenatal clinic. In others, you'll need an appointment at a GP surgery or a pharmacy that offers the flu vaccine.

If I had the flu jab last year, do I need to have it again now?

Yes, because the viruses that cause flu change every year. This means the flu strains the vaccines are designed to prevent this year may be different from last year.

If you had the flu vaccine during the last flu season because you were pregnant (same pregnancy or a previous pregnancy), or because you're in a vulnerable group, you need to have it again this year.

Find out more about how the flu vaccine works.

Will the flu jab give me flu?

No. Flu jabs do not contain any live viruses, so cannot cause flu. Some people get a slightly raised temperature and aching muscles for a couple of days afterwards, and you may feel sore at the injection site.

Find out more about flu vaccine side effects.

Can I have the flu jab at the same time as the whooping cough vaccine?

Yes, you can have a flu vaccine at the same time as the whooping cough vaccine, but do not delay your flu jab so you can have both at the same time.

Pregnant women are at risk of severe illness from flu at any stage of pregnancy, so you need to have a flu vaccine as soon as possible.

The best time to get vaccinated against whooping cough is from 16 weeks up to 32 weeks of pregnancy.

If you miss having the vaccine for any reason, you can still have it up until you go into labour.

Find out more about the whooping cough vaccine in pregnancy.

I'm pregnant and think I have flu. What should I do?

Talk to a GP as soon as possible. If you do have flu, there's a prescribed medicine you can take that might help, or reduce your risk of complications, but it needs to be taken very soon after symptoms appear.

Depending on your specific risk factors, you might be offered an additional test, called Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT or OGTT).
This test is only offered to pregnant people who are at a higher risk of developing diabetes in pregnancy.
For more info click on the link above or speak to your midwife

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Gestational diabetes is high blood sugar (glucose) that develops during pregnancy and usually disappears after giving birth.
It can happen at any stage of pregnancy, but is more common in the second or third trimester.

It happens when your body cannot produce enough insulin - a hormone that helps control blood sugar levels - to meet your extra needs in pregnancy.

Gestational diabetes can cause problems for you and your baby during pregnancy and after birth. But the risks can be reduced if the condition is detected early and well managed.

Who's at risk of gestational diabetes

Any woman can develop gestational diabetes during pregnancy, but you're at an increased risk if:

you are over 40

your body mass index (BMI) is above 30 - use the BMI healthy weight calculator to work out your BMI

you previously had a baby who weighed 4.5kg (10lb) or more at birth

you had gestational diabetes in a previous pregnancy

1 of your parents or siblings has diabetes

you are of south Asian, Black, African-Caribbean or Middle Eastern origin (even if you were born in the UK)

you have had a gastric bypass or other weight-loss surgery

If any of these apply to you, you should be offered screening for gestational diabetes during your pregnancy.

Symptoms of gestational diabetes

Gestational diabetes does not usually cause any symptoms.

Most cases are only discovered when your blood sugar levels are tested during screening for gestational diabetes.

Some women may develop symptoms if their blood sugar levels gets too high (hyperglycaemia), such as:

increased thirst

needing to pee more often than usual

a dry mouth

tiredness

blurred eyesight

genital itching or thrush

But some of these symptoms are common during pregnancy and are not necessarily a sign of gestational diabetes. Speak to your midwife or doctor if you're worried about any symptoms you're experiencing.

How gestational diabetes can affect your pregnancy

Most women with gestational diabetes have otherwise normal pregnancies with healthy babies.

However, gestational diabetes can cause problems such as:

your baby growing larger than usual - this may lead to difficulties during the delivery and increases the likelihood of needing induced labour or a caesarean section

polyhydramnios - too much amniotic fluid (the fluid that surrounds the baby) in the womb, which can cause premature labour or problems at delivery

premature birth - giving birth before the 37th week of pregnancy

pre-eclampsia - a condition that causes high blood pressure during pregnancy and can lead to pregnancy complications if not treated

your baby developing low blood sugar or yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice) after he or she is born, which may require treatment in hospital

the loss of your baby (stillbirth) - though this is rare

Having gestational diabetes also means you're at an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes in the future.

Screening for gestational diabetes

During your first antenatal appointment (also called a booking appointment) at around week 8 to 12 of your pregnancy, your midwife or doctor will ask you some questions to determine whether you're at an increased risk of gestational diabetes.

If you have 1 or more risk factors for gestational diabetes you should be offered a screening test.

The screening test is called an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which takes about 2 hours.

It involves having a blood test in the morning, when you have not had any food or drink for 8 to 10 hours (though you can usually drink water, but check with the hospital if you're unsure). You're then given a glucose drink.

After resting for 2 hours, another blood sample is taken to see how your body is dealing with the glucose.

The OGTT is done when you're between 24 and 28 weeks pregnant. If you've had gestational diabetes before, you'll be offered an OGTT earlier in your pregnancy, soon after your booking appointment, then another OGTT at 24 to 28 weeks if the first test is normal.
Find out more at Lab Tests Online: Glucose Tests.

Treatments for gestational diabetes

If you have gestational diabetes, the chances of having problems with your pregnancy can be reduced by controlling your blood sugar levels.

You'll be given a blood sugar testing kit so you can monitor the effects of treatment.

Blood sugar levels may be reduced by changing your diet and being more active if you can. Gentle activities such as walking, swimming and prenatal yoga can help reduce blood sugar. But tell your midwife or doctor before starting an activity you haven't done before.

However, if these changes don't lower your blood sugar levels enough, you will need to take medicine as well. This may be tablets or insulin injections.

You'll also be more closely monitored during your pregnancy and birth to check for any potential problems.

If you have gestational diabetes, it's best to give birth before 41 weeks. Induction of labour or a caesarean section may be recommended if labour does not start naturally by this time.

Earlier delivery may be recommended if there are concerns about your or your baby's health or if your blood sugar levels have not been well controlled.

Find out more about how gestational diabetes is treated.

Long-term effects of gestational diabetes

Gestational diabetes normally goes away after birth. But women who've had it are more likely to develop:

gestational diabetes again in future pregnancies

type 2 diabetes - a lifelong type of diabetes

You should have a blood test to check for diabetes 6 to 13 weeks after giving birth, and once every year after that if the result is normal.

See your GP if you develop symptoms of high blood sugar, such as increased thirst, needing to pee more often than usual, and a dry mouth - do not wait until your next test.

You should have the tests even if you feel well, as many people with diabetes do not have any symptoms.

You'll also be advised about things you can do to reduce your risk of getting diabetes, such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly.

Some research has suggested that babies of mothers who had gestational diabetes may be more likely to develop diabetes or become obese later in life.

Planning future pregnancies

If you've had gestational diabetes before and you're planning to get pregnant, make sure you get checked for diabetes. Your GP can arrange this.

If you do have diabetes, you should be referred to a diabetes pre-conception clinic for support to ensure your condition is well controlled before you get pregnant.

Read more about diabetes in pregnancy.

If you have an unplanned pregnancy, talk to your GP and tell them you had gestational diabetes in your previous pregnancy.

If tests show you do not have diabetes, you'll be offered screening earlier in pregnancy (soon after your first midwife appointment) and another test at 24 to 28 weeks if the first test is normal.

Alternatively, your midwife or doctor may suggest you test your blood sugar levels yourself using a finger-pricking device in the same way as you did during your previous gestational diabetes.

Action on Pre-eclampsia provides pre-eclampsia support and information to members of the public and support to those affected by the condition. You can find out more about the disease, pre-eclampsia Q&A’s and downloadable information sheets clicking on the picture.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Mild pre-eclampsia affects up to 10% of first time pregnancies with severe pre-eclampsia affecting about 1-2 in 100 severe pregnancies.

It is caused by a defect in the placenta, which joins the mother and baby and supplies the baby with nutrients and oxygen from the mother's blood. While we do not know yet exactly what is the root cause of pre-eclampsia, medical science is expanding our knowledge every day. By definition, pre-eclampsia occurs after 20 weeks (but in very rare cases can occur earlier) and the majority of cases occur in the third trimester. Pre-eclampsia is known as a multi-system disorder which means it can affect different parts of your body such as your liver, your kidneys, your cardiovascular system or your clotting systems.

Pre-eclampsia support line: 01386 761 848

The Action on Pre-eclampsia helpline is open Monday to Thursday from 9am - 3pm and Friday 9am - 1pm. Because we are a small team, there are times when the helpline may be busy. In this event, please leave a message and we will return your call as soon as possible. If you are pregnant and worried or feel unwell please contact your GP or midwife immediately.

PDF versions of publications

We regularly review research and data, and consequently update the information and advice we provide in line with current evidence.

It is therefore important that organisations do not directly host Lullaby Trust PDF publications on their websites (this represents a breach of copyright), but instead only use links to publications on The Lullaby Trust website. This ensures that the most up-to-date version of a publication is shared by professionals with families and minimises the likelihood of a governance risk.

Self-feeding pillows/prop feeders present a risk of serious harm or death from choking or aspiration pneumonia.

The Office for Product Safety and Standards has issued an Urgent Safety Alert for baby self-feeding pillows and is urging the public to stop using them immediately and dispose of them safely.

Businesses selling these products must immediately remove them from the market as they cannot comply with the safety requirements under the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.

Baby self-feeding pillow products are designed to be attached to a bottle so that the baby may be positioned on its back to self-feed without the assistance of a caregiver holding the bottle and controlling the feed.

This is inconsistent with NHS guidance in relation to safe bottle feeding.

When used as intended, even whilst under the supervision of a caregiver, it could lead to immediate, serious harm or death from choking or aspiration pneumonia.

Consumers, local authority trading standards services and businesses are asked to take specific action to cease use or remove these products from the market as advised below.

Action

OPSS has identified that this category of products will always be dangerous due to their design and intended use and can never be made safe.

Consumers

Consumers should immediately stop using these products and dispose of them safely.

Businesses

Must immediately remove these products from the market as they cannot comply with the safety requirements under the General Product Safety Regulations, 2005.

Must comply with their obligations under product safety law.

Local Authority Trading Standards and Northern Ireland Environmental Health

Should identify and take appropriate action against businesses that sell baby self-feeding pillows as they do not comply with the safety requirements set down in the General Product Safety Regulations, 2005.

Visit the Office for Product Safety and Standards web pages on GOV.UK for further information and contact details.

At the appointment you can discuss whether you would prefer to have your baby at home, at one of our birth centres or on one of our delivery suites. You will also discuss whether you would like to have any antenatal screening tests.

You will also be given the contact details of your named midwife who will have overall responsibility for co-ordinating your care and supporting your choices throughout your pregnancy. Your midwife will also give you a set of Pregnancy notes: please take these with you at every appointment.

Group B strep is common in pregnant women and rarely causes any problems.

It's not routinely tested for, but may be found during tests carried out for another reason, such as a urine test or vaginal swab.

Please find more information by clicking on the above link

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Group B strep is a type of bacteria called streptococcal bacteria.

It's very common in both men and women and usually lives in the bottom (rectum) or vagina. It affects 2 to 4 women in 10.

Group B strep is normally harmless and most people will not realise they have it.

It's usually only a problem if it affects:

pregnant woman - it could spread to the baby

young babies - it can make them very ill

elderly people or those who are already very ill - it can cause repeated or serious infections

This page focuses on group B strep in pregnancy and babies.

Group B strep in pregnancy

Group B strep is common in pregnant women and rarely causes any problems.

It's not routinely tested for, but may be found during tests carried out for another reason, such as a urine test or vaginal swab.

Risks in pregnancy

If you have group B strep while you're pregnant:

your baby will usually be healthy

there's a small risk it could spread to your baby during labour and make them ill - this happens in about 1 in 1,750 pregnancies

there's an extremely small risk you could miscarry or lose your baby

What to do if you're worried

If you're worried about group B strep, speak to your midwife or GP for advice.

Talk to them about the risks to your baby and ask their advice about whether to get tested.

Routine testing is not currently recommended and tests are rarely done on the NHS, but you can pay for one privately.
Find out more about getting tested for group B strep on the Group B Strep Support website
What happens if you have group B strep

If tests find group B strep, or you've had a baby that's been affected by it before, you may need extra care and treatment.

You may be advised to:

speak to your midwife about your birth plan - they may recommend giving birth in hospital

contact your midwife as soon as you go into labour or your waters break

have antibiotics into a vein during labour - this can significantly reduce the risk of your baby getting ill

stay in hospital for at least 12 hours after giving birth so your baby can be monitored - this is not always necessary

Group B strep in babies

If you had group B strep during pregnancy, there's a small risk it could spread to your baby and make them very ill.

If this happens, it's usually soon after they're born. Your baby may be monitored in hospital for up to 12 hours to check for any problems.

They'll be given antibiotics into a vein if they develop symptoms.

What to look for after leaving hospital

Occasionally, symptoms of a group B strep infection can develop up to 3 months after birth.

Call 999 or go to A&E if your baby gets any of these symptoms:

being floppy or unresponsive

grunting when breathing, or working hard to breath when you look at their chest or stomach

very fast or slow breathing

a very fast or slow heart rate

an unusually high or low temperature

changes in their skin colour or blotchy skin

not feeding well or vomiting milk up

an unusually fast or slow heart rate

They may need treatment with antibiotics in hospital immediately.

Risks in babies

Most babies with a group B strep infection make a full recovery if treated.

Some babies may develop serious problems like sepsis or meningitis.

This can cause lasting problems like hearing loss or loss of vision. Sometimes it can be fatal.

STFYAYB provides information about the screening tests offered during and after pregnancy.

Details

This information is about the screening tests you will be offered during your pregnancy and after your baby is born. It explains the different types of test and what the tests are looking for.

Easy read versions of this leaflet are available. Additional information is also available for parents of babies who are in a special care baby unit, neonatal intensive care unit or paediatric intensive care unit.

We hope this advice will help prepare you for discussions with your midwife or doctor so that you can ask the questions that are important to you.

It is your decision whether or not to have any of the tests described.

In this publication, we use the terms 'woman' and 'women' to refer to anyone able to become pregnant, including trans men. Trans men who are pregnant should be offered the same antenatal and newborn screening tests as other pregnant individuals.

The information is available in 12 other languages: Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, French, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Portuguese, Punjabi, Romanian, Somali and Urdu.

See how to print digital leaflets if you want to print any sections of this guidance.

Free printed copies of this leaflet are also provided for local screening providers to give to women who cannot access the internet. Screening services can view the full PDF of the printed leaflet and order printed copies on the APS online ordering portal (requires login).

Contact the screening helpdesk with any queries about this publication, making sure you include its full title.
