Serious Dilema!

CatStorey · Jan 25th, 2013, 07:12 AM

Just called my GP and she said I didn't need to see her but to go straight and book an appointment with the Midwife. So all booked in for Monday 18th Feb

Had my first bout of vomiting today -ugh... Not good.
Am having a rest/nap now as due at friends tonight for burns night celebration -not sure how I will get away with the not drinking...

well i was booked for the 31st but got a call today from the mw my first appointment will now be the 14th as i dont "need" to be seen till closer to 10wks and the clinic is filling up with women about to have their babies who need appointments more urgently lol

Managed to get away with not drinking last night. Had my drinks in a wine glass. Feeling very nauseous and retching today as well as lots of trips to the toilet.

Off to meet a friend to get some fresh air...

It's kind of annoying that you can't self-refer to the community midwifery team here, you have to go through the GP! As it happens though, it's quite useful for me as I've been in contact with some kids who turned out to have slapped cheek so I need to see a doctor just in case anyway! It shouldn't be long after that until my booking appointment as I'll be nearly 8 weeks when I get referred and so they should get back to me with appointment info within a fortnight so it's not too bad!

Same here, worst I've had is slight nausea, worries me!

Had to go to EPU this morning because of severe pain. Had a scan, all ok not eptopic. Saw baby and yolk sac and heart flickering away.

Off work for the rest of the week with bed rest as very pale and exhausted.

Oh why does everything have to be so complicated! I had my first midwife appointement booked for Fri the 8th Feb managed to get last appointment of the day as I am a teacher and can't get time off unless I tell people why.
So anyways I have my appointment then a close friend dies, and the funeral is on the 8th! Trying to get through to the gp is a nightmare whilst a work as have to do it in secret. My mum (bless her) phoned up today to change my appoinment. The next one is the 28th feb

I would be 13 weeks by then so far too late. Mum then phoned the hospital to try to get an appointment there with the community midwife. She dosn't work Tuesdays

. Anyway my concern is one of the parents of a child in my class works up at the maternity unit

If i happen to bump into her is she like a doctor and can not tell anybody or could she tell people at my school. This is all such a pain surely Midwifes know it isn't that easy for people to get time off! Rant over sorry
