When you find out you are pregnant, you can refer yourself for NHS pregnancy care so you start care with a midwife right away.

Once you sign up online, the maternity team will contact you to book your first appointment with a midwife.

You should do this by the 10th week of pregnancy, if possible, but it’s never too late to start. If you're over 10 weeks, refer yourself as soon as you can.

📢 Good news! From September, you can get your cervical screening results through the NHS App.

If your test result is clear (negative), you’ll receive a message and notification straight to your phone via the NHS App. If you don’t check the message within 3 days, you’ll get a letter as a backup — so you won’t miss anything!

If your result needs follow-up, you’ll still get a letter in the post as usual.

👉 To make things easier and faster, we encourage you to download the NHS App and turn on notifications. It’s the quickest way to get important health info.

Let’s keep you informed and healthy!
