First docs appointment

[Rovemongoose]

Had mine today. Didn’t even test me again, I could be making the whole thing up . I would have assumed they took bloods to check hormone levels. Nothing....what I did get was the number for the epu due to having pretty severe cramping. They are ok with me taking paracetomal for the pain, but if it gets worse they will take me in. I am usually on propranolol for my migraines and I obviously can’t take it so my heart rate has been going crazy, 120bpm etc. She couldn’t have cared less. Didn’t realise how much you are left to fend for yourself so early on

Same in my area . We don’t even need to see the GP they won’t do a pregnancy test or bloods . We have to wait until the midwife which we arrange ourselves with the local maternity hospital at 7ish weeks for booking in bloods etc.

It’s pretty much your on your own until then unless you need to go the EPU
