Please use Badger Notes - Self-refer your pregnancy to BNSSG and complete the form to arrange your first appointment with a midwife at North Bristol NHS Trust.
We recommend you complete the Badger Notes form as soon as you know you are pregnant; it should take approximately 10 minutes to complete.
We will contact you within three working days to offer you an appointment, this will be at the most suitable time to ensure that you are booked for your scan and screening tests within a recommended timeframe.
Appointments are occasionally offered in a neighbouring area to ensure that your appointment is at the optimum time. The first appointment is important and we would appreciate your flexibility to attend the offered appointment.
If you need help completing this form, please contact the booking team, Monday to Friday between 08:00 and 16:00 on 0117 414 6743.
Some pregnant people may require an early appointment:
- Are you known to be a carrier of sickle cell, abnormal haemoglobin or thalassaemia?
- Or have you had a pregnancy confirmed to have been affected by Down’s Syndrome, Edward’s syndrome, or Pataus’ syndrome?
If so, in addition to completing the self-referral form, please contact the Screening team for early screening advice on 0117 414 6739.
