How to self-refer for maternity care

If you are more than six weeks pregnant, you can complete our maternity referral form to inform us about your pregnancy.

NHS number: Please have your NHS number ready to complete the referral. If you don’t know it, your GP surgery can provide it or you can visit the NHS website to find it here.

Providing information: Share as much detail as possible, as this helps us deliver the most appropriate care for you.

After submitting your self-referral

  • You will receive a confirmation email to acknowledge receipt.
  • Your GP will be notified that we are providing your care, as required.

If you have questions or prefer not to use the online form, contact our maternity self-referral team on 023 8120 4871.

You can expect to hear from the self-referral team within four weeks of submission. In some cases, you may receive a response sooner, depending on your gestation and clinical details.

For pregnancy-related concerns, please consult the resources below or visit the Healthier Together website, which addresses many common queries.
