Maternity Care Consultation

Service Description

A Maternity Care Consultation is a one-off, 1:1 consultation for pregnant women and birthing people who need time and space to think clearly about their care. This is a non-clinical, evidence-based appointment where we talk through your specific situation, explore the evidence behind different options, and look at what those choices might mean for you. There’s no agenda, and no pressure to make decisions during the appointment. MCCs can be particularly helpful if you’re facing recommendations such as induction, additional monitoring, or screening – or if you’re receiving conflicting advice and want to feel more confident advocating for your decisions within the NHS. You won’t be told what to do. My role is to help you understand the full picture, act as a sounding board, and support you to make decisions that feel informed and right for you.
