How does it work???

Hi, all! With my last baby I moved to Ireland when I was 28weeks so missed out on the normal "process" of antenatal care. I just got my BFP on a home test so what do I do now? Confirm with GP and then what???

Thanks, ladies! Could anyone recommend a good GP in the City Centre area? I'm next to Trinity University. Last time my DH just took me to his GP in Tipperary...

Exactly as Lara said. :-) Confirm with your GP and they will tell you what happens next. I had to Finn out some forms with them and the got a letter and a call for my scan and first hospital appointment (12w5d). I then got the choice of doing hospital visits or going to my local midwife clinic. I chose the clinic so that I'd be seeing the same midwife every time (which I had to request to make sure it happened) and from there to 40 weeks my appointments were silt between my GP and my midwife. :-)

Congratulations and good luck! :-)

You confirm it with the GP and they will usually ask you which hospital you would like to go with. You then wait until the 12/13th week where the hospital will call you in for the first scan . After that the hospital will then give you date of your next appointment, weather that will be with them or if you choose to go with midwife ( if available ) . I can’t remember if the GP asks or the hospital about private or public care .

The check ups are mixed between the Hospital and your Gp.

Hope that helps !

I sometimes call my lo monkey. To me he looks like a little monkey. My so says it's racist and offensive. What do you think?

Well I started it. Saw the response from forever ago and those stupid quotation marks had me
