Who has had their booking appt?
Who has had their booking in appt with the mw?
I have mine on Monday and was just wondering what to expect really. We were given somme forms to fill in if we wanted to but it says they can do them all there. I know they take your history etc but is there anything I need to know that I might not or anything I should be aware of?

nothing i can think of hun, its mainly about your history and also filling in forms for your maternity exsemption certificate, they also weigh you and test you urine. i havnt got my app yet, i have the doctor on tuesday then I can book the midwife,im quite excited now x
Thanks hun. Probably should stop having as much sweet stuff as I seemed to have loads yesterday and I don't want it all showing up lol. My doctor was so lovely when we saw her as she knows all about our fertility troubles. I'm stupidly excited about everything, I know I maybe should be being a wee bit more cautious but I can't help it! Good luck at the docs

thats y im seeing my doctor so late, she has been my doc and been there through my fertility problems with my son (pcos) then the birth of him, then i went into depression and dramatic weight loss, so shes been there through thick and thin, and was the one who removed my coil on the 18th on Jan and here i am now, 6 weeks tomorrow, such a shock to get pregnant in the first month
will do im nervous as iv had to previous mcs before my son so i have to make sure im as safe and healthy as i can be in this pregnancy as my weight is still far below average, but to be honest i think im going to be huge by 12 weeks cant wait to see everyones bumps im off to take my son swimming now speak later all
I also had blood tests done at mine so if you're squeamish be prepared they might want those. They want a urine test with my mw every time they see you.
Other than that it was just a lot of form filling in and the chance to ask a lot of questions. I got my maternity exemption form to fill in and the number to call to get my 12 week scan booked.
It was largely a welfare thing, to make sure there's no concerns or relevant medical history. Don't know if they're done in a standard way nationally x

I haven't been to see the doctor yet, must get round to ringing!
Im seeing my doctor tomorrow, shes going to be well shocked to see me, she only removed my coil on jan the 18th and here I am now 6 weeks pregnant. I love my doc as shes been through the birth of my son with me and depression and other things so i know she will be thrilled for me x
