Urgent 040 285 8323 Key 9

This way you know when to call

Always call us if you are less than 37 weeks pregnant and think labour may have started — for example, if you have abdominal pain that comes and goes, or if you’re losing blood or fluid.

From 37 weeks onward, call us when:

  • You have painful contractions every 3 minutes, lasting 60 seconds each, for at least an hour.
  • Your waters break. If the fluid is green, yellow, or brown, call us immediately. If it’s clear, call us between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. (9-21u)
  • You experience bright red vaginal bleeding.

We’ll always take your personal situation in mind regarding instructions on when to call, so it’s possible that we’ll give you slightly different instructions about when to call.

And did you know that only 10% of births start with the waters breaking?

Call us if you have any questions or concerns

If at any time during your pregnancy or labour you feel uncertain or worried — please call us.


Around the time of birth, you can reach us at 040 – 285 83 23, option 9.
You’ll then be connected directly to the midwife on duty.
