Congratulations! 

The NHS is a bit more hands off but that's not necessarily a bad thing.  Just be your own advocate and mention anything that seems "off" no matter how minor it may be.

Enjoy your final weeks/months as a two-some!

Congrats!
Call your gp and let them know, and they should set you up with your local midwife team. I really liked the handsoff approach. They seem to keep just enough of an eye on your to check for abnormalities. If something is off, they do a great job of getting more hands on.
