Keeping the baby

If you decide to keep the baby you will need to start your antenatal care (care during pregnancy). Your GP will start this care and it will also involve a midwife, it will include information and advice about:

• Healthy eating and exercise
• Taking folic acid
• Stopping smoking
• Cutting out or down on alcohol
• Any medicines that are unsafe during pregnancy
• Any medical conditions you may have that need any special care during pregnancy
