Pregnancy and Covid-19.

 

If you're pregnant, you may be unsure how coronavirus (COVID-19) could affect you, your baby and your pregnancy care.

It's important to tell your midwife or maternity team if you have symptoms of COVID-19. You can ask them for help with any other concerns as you usually would.
