Pregnancy Care Tailored to You

Pregnancy is an exciting time, but it can also bring questions, uncertainty and important decisions.

Whether you're experiencing your first pregnancy or have welcomed children before, you'll receive care that is individualised to your circumstances.

From your first consultation onwards, Emma works closely with you to understand your health, your pregnancy and your preferences for birth. Every appointment is designed to provide the time needed to discuss your concerns, monitor your baby's wellbeing and help you prepare for the months ahead.

“I am passionate about empowering women to have the birth experience they want and invested in providing outstanding continuity of care.”

Your first antenatal appointment

Your first appointment is an opportunity to get to know one another and begin planning your pregnancy care.

During this consultation, Emma will:

  • Review your medical and pregnancy history

  • Discuss your pregnancy and any existing health conditions

  • Complete your antenatal card

  • Answer any questions you may have

  • Perform a bedside ultrasound

  • Explain your pregnancy care plan

  • Discuss and arrange prenatal screening for chromosomal and genetic conditions - including carrier screening, combined first trimester screening, NIPT and PET screening

  • Arrange any further investigations required

To help us prepare, you will be contacted before the appointment to provide:

  • A GP referral

  • Copies of your antenatal screening blood tests and urine results

  • Dating scan or early pregnancy ultrasound reports

  • Your most recent cervical screening results (if available)

  • Any previous pregnancy or medical records relevant to your care

If you have experienced previous pregnancy complications, miscarriage or fertility treatment, these can also be discussed during your consultation.

Ongoing antenatal visits

Throughout your pregnancy, regular antenatal appointments allow us to monitor both your health and your baby's development.

Appointments are generally scheduled:

  • Every four weeks until approximately 28 weeks

  • Every two weeks until approximately 36 weeks

  • Weekly until your baby is born

At each visit, Emma will assess your pregnancy, check your blood pressure and perform a bedside ultrasound. She will answer questions and ensure you feel informed and reassured as your pregnancy progresses.

If additional monitoring is recommended due to your medical history or pregnancy, your care plan will be tailored to your individual needs. Additional appointments with Emma or her midwife may be requested or required.

Midwifery care

Our experienced midwives are an important part of your pregnancy journey.

You'll also have appointments with our midwifery team throughout your pregnancy, providing education, support and practical guidance as you prepare for birth and early parenthood.

Working alongside Dr Emma, our collaborative approach ensures you receive comprehensive care from a team that knows you throughout your pregnancy.

Birth planning and delivery

Every woman has different hopes and expectations for labour and birth.

Emma works closely with you to discuss your birth preferences, provide evidence based guidance and develop a birth plan that prioritises both your wishes and the safety of you and your baby.

Whether your pregnancy progress is straightforward or requires additional support, you'll receive personalised care and clear communication throughout labour and delivery.

Dr Emma has a special interest in caring for women experiencing complex or high-risk pregnancies.

Her expertise includes the management of pregnancy complications such as:

  • Gestational diabetes

  • Hypertension and pre-eclampsia

  • Multiple pregnancy

  • Fetal growth concerns

  • Previous pregnancy complications

  • Maternal medical conditions

By combining specialist obstetric expertise with personalised care, Emma supports women through even the most complex pregnancies with confidence and compassion.

Postnatal care

Your care doesn't end when your baby arrives.

Emma provides ongoing postnatal care to support your physical recovery, emotional wellbeing and transition into parenthood.

Your postnatal appointment provides an opportunity to discuss:

  • Your recovery after birth

  • Feeding support

  • Emotional wellbeing

  • Future pregnancy planning

  • Contraception

  • Cervical screening if required

Support between appointments

Questions don't always arise during scheduled appointments.

We believe that feeling supported throughout your pregnancy is just as important as the appointments themselves.
