Emma Lou Proudlock’s Pregnancy & Postpartum Essentials

A positive pregnancy test is only the start – over the next nine months, pregnant women undergo a range of tests and scans, some of which are strongly advised, while others are purely optional. To help you navigate this ever-expanding area, we asked a midwife to explain the different scans and tests available, before a paediatric doctor – currently pregnant with her second child – ran us through the choices she’s made for her family.
