Going to the docs today

i'm really hoping i get to see my doc as haven't seen him since last year sometime and i don't want to give the news that i'm pg to just a registrar or locum. So fingers crossed i get into to see him.
So i'm a little nervous and excited at the same time.
wot do i expect as such as i'm a first time older mum of 37?
so by the time the baby comes i'll be 38.

love, hugs and happy bumps

Congrats

Congrats on the pregnancy!

I'm afraid not much happens on the first visit, Your doc may just refer you straight to the midwife and not do anything at all, or he may fill in the forms with you, It is mainly paperwork, registering that you are pregnant so the hospital can send you out a date for your scan, If you have a nice doc he may take your blood pressure and stuff to make you feel like something is actually happening, but to be honest the first appointment is pretty disapointing as nothing happens!

Oh they may run through the sort of things you should avoid now, ie heavy lifting, raw egg, undercooked meat, alchol ...etc.

Sorry i don't mean to dampen your spirits!

However it is always exciting telling someone for the first time!

Thank you

I can of figured that out whenever i was in the surgery with the posters about the midwife's number and she doesn't usually see you till wotever time they say, just i've also got to go and sort out other stuff too, not just my pg stuff.

Thank you anyway for that.

tc love and hugs and happy bumps.
