Birth reflections service

Birth reflections provides an opportunity for you to talk about your birth experience following the birth of your baby and to explore your thoughts and feelings with a midwife.

Please complete our online form to request an appointment with a member of our birth reflections team.

• Once a self-referral form has been submitted, you will receive an email confirming receipt, and advising on the estimated wait time.
• You will be contacted by the Birth Reflections Midwife to arrange a date/time/location that suits you by email/telephone – if we do not receive a response within 21 days we will presume you no longer require an appointment.
• Your Birth Reflection appointment can only be re-arranged once. Due to a limited number of appointments available per week, you will be required to re-submit a self-referral form should you cancel your re-arranged appointment.

We suggest waiting up to six weeks after delivery to give yourself time to process what happened and we can offer you an appointment up to a year after the birth.
