A midwife will contact you within two weeks to arrange your first appointment, which will be between 8-10 weeks. Maternity services are provided in Taunton and Yeovil in a number of locations including our main Musgrove Park maternity unit, Mary Stanley midwifery led birth unit at Bridgwater Community Hospital.
