Pregnancy Booking Form

You no longer need to see a doctor, you now do a self-referral.  To complete the form please go to the website: www.mtw.nhs.uk/maternity

The first booking appointment is carried out by the midwife at the Maidstone Birth Centre.  In order for an appointment to be made, once you access the website you complete the online referal form which will enable  the hospital  to arrange a booking appointment with your midwife in an appropriate setting. You will be sent the latest pregnancy information electronically in order to read prior to your appointment.

After your booking appointment, your care after will be dealt with at the surgery on a Thursday by the midwife.
