Hello Everyone 👋🏼
I am very new and I am happy I discovered this platform :)
I am almost 7 weeks pregnant. I called my GP two weeks ago as soon I figured out after doing a test. She said to wait for a letter from the hospital for my first catch up with the midwife but I didn’t receive anything yet. I don’t want to stress for nothing but I know that the first scan would be schedule after that meeting and I am just worried that is going to be late. I don’t know why but I would feel calmer to know when the scan is due, to know how things are going.
I am sorry if this sounds unjustified stress but I didn’t share I am pregnant with anyone (a part from my partner) because it is so early and I would love some one to talk with, someone who went through this already... I am not sure what to expect in terms of exams etc also because I am not English and for example in my country they tend to do more scans and blood tests from the beginning. Thanks for your help, any advise is more than welcome! Aly #myfirstpost
Hi, welcome!
I think it varies by area but where I am the GP books you in for an appointment with the midwife at the doctors surgery for around 8 weeks. You go to that and give all your medical information. That then gets sent to the hospital and you then receive your scan date in the post. When you go for your scan you collect your notes from the hospital which you keep with you.
Whats happening with your booking appointment? I don't know if it's different currently due to covid
Ladies I need advice I am so stressed out and so upset. My mans ex is giving out his number to strange men and telling them to pretend that they know me and they text my man nasty things and say that I know them and that they had sex with me but I don’t know anyone from this area since I just moved here a couple of months ago. I am at loss and so afraid that he’s gonna leave me I keep breaking down..
I will not be tested for COVID unless I am showing all signs of having it! They taking newborn babies away from their mothers if they test positive. Over my cold dead body! No ONE will take my baby away from me bet!
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights
I am so stressed right now!!!
My OB doesn’t want to take me anymore because I am too “high risk” so I got a new one they don’t want to see me either. They referred me to a group one hour way from my house. But there is only one high risk dr and he doesn’t know if he could see me.
I feel like I should not see any at this point.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Update. Looks like my appointment with midwife would be in 10 days in the phone because pandemic🤷🏻♀️I thought they run tests on that day like blood, pressure?!
Oh well. Strange times ...
