How long does it take for midwife to contact u?
Hi gem
Congratulations! this is my first as well
The midwife took about 2 weeks to contact me but i spose its different in different in different areas. If you feelin anxious, maybe just give the docs or midwife a ring and see what's goin on, I was goin to and the day i was gonna phone the midwife phoned me

Most mw dnt get in touch until your booking in appt which is usually between 8-14weeks, but it totally depends on the area u live in. Where I live they do booking in at 8weeks and while your there they give u an appt for 12week scan. It will soon come around dnt worry. Kerry xxxx

i myself am finding the whole mw thing very confusing. i used to live in birmingham and have not longed moved to essex where there health care is much different to what im use to. i found out i was pregnant and went to the doctors and then i had to go back to the doctors to see the midwife as the midwife only goes there on a thursday, she dont make no contact with you, it all has to be done through the surgery. i saw her that once and not heard a peep since, i got my scan booked in for 20th december so i dont know if she will be there or when the next time i will see her. its all quite confusing when your a first time mom, i think would be nice to be informed abit more by the doctor and mw about how often to expect contact and etc.
glad you called the doc though Gem, sometimes they need a kick up the bum as they sometimes forget.
little bit of advice girls would be great! xx
