Mat B1 Form

[H8624]

Had my 20 week scan today at the hospital and everything was perfect 😊.

Just wondering when/where do I get the Mat B1 form that I need to give to my employer? Do I need to contact my doctors surgery for it (where midwife is based part time), or will it be sent in the post? Based in the UK.

I had to ask my midwife for it at my 25 week appointment. I'm sure you can get it earlier, but you will only be given one so don't lose it!

Ask for it at your next face to face midwife appt

I got mine at my 28 week appointment :)

Got mine at my 28wk face to face midwife appointment

I got mine at my 28 week appointment as it has to be given face to face by the midwife. Typically you get it around 20 weeks normally.

Thanks all! Think I will contact them as I need it by 25 weeks to give to my work. Next appt 24 weeks May be over the phone and a bit last minute!

My GP did one for me when I realised I wouldn’t see a midwife face to face until 28 weeks and also needed to give it to my employer by 25 weeks. I sorted it with the GP over the phone and collected it from reception.

I phoned local midwives as needed to submit to work by 25weeks and was able to just go down to women’s centre at local hospital and a midwife completed one and gave me it. I was 22weeks at the time.
