Is it serious? Pregnancy symptom checker
In many cases the symptoms in this section can be treated easily and will not lead to a serious complication. But sometimes they are signs of something more serious.
Maternity care is still essential during the coronavirus pandemic and services are still running. If you have any concerns about your pregnancy call your GP, midwife, nearest early pregnancy unit or maternity unit.
It is important to remember that the information in this section is about what could potentially go wrong, but this doesn't mean it definitely will.
We believe in empowering women to understand what is happening within their bodies at this crucial time and to know when they need to ask for extra care.
If you have more questions, you can call our midwives between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday on Tommy's free PregnancyLine.
