Understanding your labour journey 

Thursday 20 April 11.30am-12.30pm

The first Understanding Health educational event of 2023 takes place next Thursday (20 April).

The free virtual talk will be hosted by University Hospitals Dorset’s head of midwifery, Kerry Taylor, alongside maternity colleagues who will talk about various aspects of labour and giving birth, including:

·       Early labour
·       Labour positions
·       Epidurals and modes of delivery

The talk will also highlight some of the resources available through the NHS and ways in which mums-to-be can help themselves during their labour such as the use of aromatherapy.

After the talk, there will be a Q&A where you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions to the team.

The talk will run on Microsoft Teams and is open to everyone. There’s no need to download Teams to join. Click here to join the event at 11.30am on Thursday 20 April. A recording of the talks will also be available after the event in the health talk library on UHD’s website here. The library is ever-growing and includes talks on a range of health issues.
