8 +5 weeks today. Going to my first midwife appointment. Don't know what to expect. Feeling s little apprehensive 😬🙌🏼

@San ralee71, thank you so much ☺️🌟 i think your right about the dates... But I don't mind. Little one will come when they are ready, right? ☺️😘

Your dates may change when you have your scan, mine did with all 3 of mine. At my booking in they took bloods but they may not, different hospitals and all that. Congratulations! and welcome to our little world of mummies 😊 x

Haha @jodiec no way! I'm not sure I trust those dates tbh.... I think I ov late that month... But that's the dates they are sticking with x

@jodiec, it's amazing how different people's experiences are. I did read somewhere that when they go through your questions they determine from your family history if you may need them? Either way- I'm ready for the unexpected ☺️ Thank you 😘

@beccastirlingx, My thoughts exactly! Thanks for the advice 😘

Also your due on my dads birthday 🙃 xx

I had my bloods done on my booking in appointment at 9 weeks she done all the paperwork and then bloods might be different where you are xx

@debs, as horrible as it is, it's all for the sake of you and baby! That's what I have to tell myself every time 😂 you'll be fine!

@beccastirlingx, ahh, well... Hopefully she doesn't have to take any today as I'll be on my own, but I'll be grand either way! I'll just have to get over it! ☺️

@babycharman2016, aw, thank you so much. It's going to be an exciting year for us, Please God 🌟

Paper work and health and back ground questions. I'm not sure about anyone else but I got lots of blood taken.. @debs don't want to scare you!! I didn't think they would take blood so I went alone! Ehhhk! Take someone with you just incase :-) x

I did the same thing. don't worry :-) if your midwife is as nice as mine you'll be absolutely fine. she'll also do check up on weight height blood pressure those sorts of things but no bloods. after mine she told me I need to book a blood test scan info would come through the post and you won't see her until 16 weeks. You'll be fine. if you ever need anything I'm in the same boat. youre just 5 days ahead of me :-) x

@mummy2, phew 🙅🏼 Thank you x

he's 5 😊 so quite a big age gap between him and my little one lol x

@babycharman2016, thank you. It's all new to me. Don't know why I build myself up so much 😄

@sophie94x, aw, am I ☺️ What age is your son? X

No :) @debs

she asked questions and went through paperwork with me xx

Aww you're due on my son's birthday lol xx

@mummy2, so no blood work then? (I'm a fainter 😄)

@debs,

paperwork that all that happened on my first app xx
