Preparing for the birth

Preparing for the birth/birth bag

If your labour is being induced, there may be a break of 24-48 hours between the medication needed, in this time you may be offered to return home, although this isn’t mandatory.

The induction of labour will be discussed with you in depth by a consultant to help you make a decision.

When you first visited the hospital, if you weren’t given a leaflet called ‘The Alternative Birth Bag’ please contact the bereavement midwife.

Alternatively some information is available on the BeyondBea website.
