*** NOVEMBER 2011 BABIES ! *** Chrysanthe-Mums - 39 babies here already!!!

[madmax]

Just a quick question to the November 2011 ladies. When do you contact the docs etc? Its been 5 years since I had my daughter and back then they didn't want to know until you were 12 weeks? Don't know who to ask as I am trying to keep my pregnancy quiet (apart from my very close friends and DH) as several members of staff where I work announced their pregnancies very early for them not to work out. Not wanting to scare anyone because there were other problems that they had, they weren't exactly all fit and healthy to start with! I also suffered a mc in 2008, it was "easier" if it makes sense not wanting to sound callous, because no-one actually knew I was expecting.

Thanks ladies and to all.

YEY!!! it's nice to have people due on the same date as you!

I'm feeling okay thanks, a bit tired today and achey boobs, but all good of course! Would rather have these than not

Part of me just really wants to be able to enjoy the pregnancy, but I'm so nervous we wont make it to 12 weeks again! I'm trying to take it one day at a time and really try not focus on the negative... it's hard!!

hey your in skeg! i like going to skeg for day trips, the husband and i do it all the time lol.

but back to your question. you need to get in to your doctor about now really, so he can refer you to the midwife as you will need your booking in appt about 8-9 weeks so she can get you refered to the hospital for your 12 week scan in time.
thats normally the routine but it does vary slightly from area to area. i refer myself to the midwife, no longer need to see the doctor first.
perhaps give you doctors a ring in the morning and see wether you have to see the doctor first or not hun, then once you know you can get the ball rolling. xx

Loola you're right... we need something sparkly!

MadMax, I'd say anytime between now and 8 weeks... ideally you need to let them know sooner rather than later so that they have record that you are pregnant, so they can keep accurate details should you have a problem etc. The doc will notify the midwife who will then get in touch to have a booking appt.. normally around 8/9/10 weeks.

I hope that helps... that's how it works here anyway! x

 

[loob53]

You can go to the docs anytime you get a positive result, some doctors confirm others dont. I have my antenatal appointment at 6 weeks.

 

[notjustyet]

Yes we do! And a name for this thread - something to do with bonfire night maybe? Like the November Rockets or the Scorpio Sparklers or something? Any suggestions?

 

[LoolaBear]

[k8y]

I like sparkly scorpios or scorpio sparklers

 

[madmax]

Glad you like SkegVegas as we call it here! My mind has totally gone!! lol. I used to spend alot of time working in Lincoln! like it for shopping. I shall ring the docs tomorrow, thank you ladies for your advice. I am trying to think of a name but nowt is happening! I have been really docile at work today, very much to the amusement of my boss, he is also my best friend.

Currently watching Dr who with youngest (DH has got her into it!) trying to get some inspiration from it!!!

I will keep thinking.

Just quickly going back to symptoms.

I swear my (.)(.) are on fire!
DH coffee smells awful and really strong.
Started feeling sicky last Wednesday!! sounds mad I know! I had HG with my daughter all the way thru even when I was giving birth to her! That maybe y it has taken me 5 and half years!
Heartburn
Burping alot lol (tmi!)
Cramps that come and go.

My laptop is playing up a little, so takes time to post!

 

[loob53]

Never really got into Dr Who.

Scorpio sparklers I think is the best one so far, we should have a poll and see what everyone else thinks

x

 

[k8y]

shall we wait till everyone who want to add ideas has had time to add ?

 

[k8y]

but then scorpio doesnt cover the whole of November does it?

 

[DrGomps]
