Midwifery Hubs are part of the Better Births Maternity Transformation Programme which supports us in delivering maternity services in locations more accessible to the population we serve.
By providing community hubs, we are offering a localised and dedicated service to women and their families, before, during and after birth.
As soon as you take a positive pregnancy test, please complete the online Maternity Self Referral Form.
If you need help with the form you can call us on 01604 545430
Our phone line is open Monday - Friday 8:30-16:00 (not on Bank Holidays).
Or send your name and contact information to: ngh-tr.midwifenorthampton@nhs.net
This is not an emergency service, if you need to speak to someone urgently with concerns about yourself or your baby please contact your GP or 111.
Your midwife will meet with you in the Midwifery Hub or home and she will ask you questions about you and your family’s health and details of any previous pregnancy’s and births. She will advise you on how to keep well, and give you tips on how to reduce some of the symptoms such as sickness and talk with you about what you can expect from your care.
She will also discuss what will happen at the different appointments and offer to arrange a scan for you and some blood tests. Several antenatal screening tests are performed on a sample of your blood which is usually taken at your booking appointment. In some cases, the baby's father may also be asked to have a blood test to check for inherited conditions, such as sickle cell or thalassaemia.
You can view the community hubs here.
