If this is the case, then your obstetric and neonatal team will be kept well informed about the care your baby will need during the remainder of your pregnancy, during labour and once they are born. We would suggest you take all your Leeds clinic letters and any other condition related information we have given to you in your hospital bag to the delivery suite.
Your baby may need admission to the Neonatal Unit for further assessment and/or may be assessed by a paediatric doctor and may have a heart scan prior to discharge home. Appropriate follow up will then be arranged.
The Specialist Nurse team from Leeds Children’s Hospital that you met during your pregnancy will continue to be available to offer support following the birth of your baby.
