Doctors tomro, what to ask?

[LunaBean]

Ok, so I have a docs app tomro at 3.30 to confirm this pregnancy, but will I be given a blood test just by asking for one, to make sure everything is ok? I've never had a positive on a digi with any of my other pregnancies, I had faint lines for a few days, then bfns, then started bleeding, but this one seems to be going well (up to now!)

It's not my usual doctor, and I don't want her to fob me off and tell me to wait a few more weeks, I'll go off my head! Can I ask to be refered to EPU for an early scan? Would I even see anything this early? (4.6 tomro), last time I went to the docs pregnant they sent me straight up for a scan, but their test was negative and there was nothing to be saw on the screen, so they couldnt even document it as a miscarrige (dispite my 20-odd positive tests!)

I'm just freaking out and havn't a clue how Im gona get through another 35 weeks!

Also,is it normal to be peeing quite so much this early on? Literally every 15/20 minutes, beginning to wonder if I have a kidney infection!

Thanks girls!

hiya

congratulations on this pregnancy

In view of your history I would ask for an epu referral - they wont normally arrrange it till your approx 6 weeks tho unless you are bleeding or in pain

good luck

Hun, at 4.6 weeks there would be nothing to see on a scan. However, if you can wait for at least a few more weeks, there is more chance they will find something. It feels like everyday is torture now, I felt exactly the same but somehow you hold on to sanity! I can't promise there won't be tears and upset, but you will get their chica. We are all here to chat with if you need a friend.

My doctor really wasn't interested until after 8 weeks, but hopefully they will be kinder

Hi Lizzie, congrats on your BFP! Hope that the midwife was helpful. They say it's best to wait until 6 weeks or more for the first scan, as before then it can be too early to see a heartbeat and it can add to the stress. The digis that say how far along you are can be good for getting through the first few weeks.

Best wishes.
