All pregnant women in custody have an individual care and management plan that is communicated to all staff and all pregnant women are seen by a mid-wife at least fortnightly or as required.

We know it is extremely rare for a woman to give birth in prison - because every step is taken to get them to hospital - but those unique cases are invariably down to the unpredictability of labour.<\/p>

All decisions on a variation are always communicated to the CPS, the police and the victim so that consideration can be made as to any additional protection that may be required.
