NHS Resources
The NHS Website has lots of information and resources, including information on getting pregnant, pregnancy and looking after a baby once it has been born.
If you are worried about coming into surgery for appointments during the COVID-19 pandemic, please watch this short video explaining how we are working to keep you and your baby as safe as possible.
Flu Vaccinations and Pregnancy
Pregnant women are a priority group for flu immunisation every year because we know that flu in pregnancy can lead to more serious complications. The vaccine is completely safe for you and your baby.
Flu is a highly infectious virus which spreads quickly, even between those not showing any symptoms. That is why the flu vaccine is still the best way to protect you, your baby, and those around you against the flu.
