June Bundles of Joy - 2016

[ReadynWaiting]

Ladies I'm having some brown spotting which is making me freak out. I bled twice with my son so I know it happens but it's not settling me at all.
I called my mw and she is going to bump my scan up to tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure if you have it with one pregnancy you are more likely to have it with any following pregnancies. Try to not stress it! Best of luck with your ultrasound tomorrow! Let us know how it goes!!

I know you are probably right. I just want this baby so much. This year has been really hard with 3 losses already. I'm not sure how I can deal with another.

big hugs readynwaiting, hope everything is okay. Bleeding can be normal on early pregnancy but I get how worrying it must be. X

Hi everyone, can i join you? Just got a bfp and would be 4 weeks today, due 27th June. Sorry to hear about your loss, op, hope you're taking it gently

Readynwaiting, i had a lot of spotting with my first, to the point where I thought i was having periods. Try not to worry, it's pretty common x

 

[tinkerbelle93]

Welcome and congratulations x

Hey there guys! I'm expecting my first little one, who's EDD is June 5th!

 

[tinkerbelle93]

What do I do about booking a 1st appointment? Do I ring my gp surgery and just ask if I can have a booking in appointment with the midwife and tell them on the phone how many weeks I am so they can book accordingly?

I remember just making a GP appointment first last time and the dr did go through dates with me to work out how many weeks I was and advised me on folic acid ect before telling me to book a midwife appt at reception on the way out. I know all that stuff this time round though so surely can just say on the phone and get my booking in midwife appt that way?

I did it online, i just googled midwife self referral in [your city]. first pregnancy i did itthrough the gp .

 

[joeybrooks]

Tinkerbelle I had thought I'd just do that too, but I called the GP the other day to see if they needed to see me or if I just went ahead and booked a MW appointment but she said that I needed to see the Dr for a booking in appointment.

 

[mommyxofxone]

over in the us you just call the mw office or obgyn and make an appt with them. i just called and made the appt with them.

:wave: welcome hun!!!!

 

[tinkerbelle93]

Thanks guys, I think I will just ring and ask the reception staff. Would rather avoid a pointless appointment as I seem so busy atm and its a long walk and consumes a lot of time.x

Ayakri- welcome and congratulations x

I rang the reception and asked them and they told me I can make an appointment from 5 weeks but my doctor told me everywhere is different some places just make a midwife appointment and no doctors appointment so you go in at a later date more 8-10 .. think as soon as you get booked in and noted down its all there

 

[wishuwerehere]

I'd just call the surgery, i'm not going through my gp this time. You might get a letter through with your first appointment

 

[wishuwerehere]

And thanks for the welcome everyone!

 

[AngelofTroy]

I had a GP appointment already booked the morning of my bfp... Because I was asking about fertility after 6 cycles of no luck!!

Welcome new ladies! I added you to the front page.

Ladies I'm thinking of changing the front page to either all yellow storks or maybe a hoping for and It's a girl/boy column so we don't get confused when actual genders start being announced. Thoughts?
