Will I be safe?

There is research that suggests for women who have had healthy pregnancies and are expected to have straightforward deliveries, the less medical intervention there is in a delivery, the more benefits there are for both mother and baby. Examples include lower postnatal depression rates and increased chance of successful breastfeeding.

Women have said they feel more empowered, relaxed and satisfied from ‘normal’ births.

In case of emergency or need of a doctor for mother or baby, Grange Maternity Centre is located 17 miles away from Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust’s new Maternity Unit at Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham. You will be transferred there by emergency ambulance.
