Labour and Birth
Throughout your pregnancy, you will have the opportunity to discuss any questions you may have about birth and the options available to you with your midwife. To ensure the safety of you and your baby as well as support your preferences we aim to personalise your care for labour and birth.
Your Choice - where to have your baby? |
 For women having their first baby |
 For women have given birth before |
Birth place options
The RUH has many birth place options.
Your medical and pregnancy circumstances and your preferences will determine the recommendations given by the midwifery and medical teams about the safest place for you to birth.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ring your local maternity unit for advice. You will be asked for personal details and a brief history to help us give advice appropriate to your ongoing care.
