16 week midwife appointment

Hi all, has anyone had their 16 week midwife appointment yet ?? I was just wondering did she try to hear the babies heart beat, or is it just more urine and blood samples ? Is there anything i need to ask her about on the vist ?

    Hi girls, i have my appointment wed, so will let you know image

    I dont think ive felt any movements yet, according to the pregnancy app i have on my phone it does say from around 16 weeks and even earlier if its not your first, i just dont know what to expect when i do start feelin movements, so excited though. I have started to get a bit of a bump, cos my belly button is starting to pop out a little, anyone eles starting to show ?

    I am 22nd August. But...both my other 2 were late so was induced...the nightmare induction for first but just waters popped for second and then things really started moving!! 
    QueenAsanti 83 I have 2 children aged 14 and 9...big gaps although we have been trying for nearly the whole time inbetween except for one year after giving birth to allow the body a rest. Almost feel like a 1st time mum again and so much has changed out there which I find more intimidating. I have neg bloods whereas I just had the 1 anti-d injection after giving birth now I am supposed to have one at 28 weeks and also the whooping cough injection. Feel like a pin cushion!! image Hee hee!! image
