Post-natal 4 - Practicalities

Registering the birth of your baby

We are delighted to offer bedside birth registrations with a Westminster registrar, by appointment, between 1.30pm - 3.00pm every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, as an alternative to travelling to Westminster Register Office.
In Short
The bedside birth registration service offers a unique opportunity to register your child’s birth in the privacy of your own room – you don’t even have to get out of bed.

By law, every birth must be registered within 42 days (six weeks) of your child being born.

Please click HERE for the information leaflet from The Portland Hospital about registering your baby’s birth.
