Been to the midwife it wasn't the booking in appointment :-(
After them being half an hour late , and then having 2 midwives in the same room as they were overstaffed i weventually went it.
Just filled in a form - my BP is borderline but they'll re check then when I go for my booking in app in 2 wks time she said if it were to be high they'd just refer me to the dr throughout

She mentioned about having the screening on the 12 wk scan to check for downs but hubby's not so sure if he wants to test for that or not as either way we'd still go ahead with that

As for the hospitals the main one near us shut their maternity ward down so it's only there for emergencies so the next one in manchester it st Mary's never been but it's a birthing unit only nor drs or baby unit is there so not so sure but she did say we could always change our mind throughout the process

So hubby's gone back to college and hes studying for his gas so well discuss it later

Come back to my car to find I've got a parking ticket when I'd paid the £1.50 for up to 2 1/2 hrs - grabbed the warden and she said it sounds like the 50p has jammed as your ticket only shows £1 for 45 minutes so I've just put a disclaim in it online grrrr

Just got a txt off the midwife now she's put my prescription in for some folic acid

Oh yes forgot to say my app was right I'm 7+3 and due 10th dec
 
Kinda a mixed bag there, glad your appointment on the whole went well, how very anoying with the parking ticket I do hope they let you off it's rather unfair I don't think most of us would actually check what the ticket says before running off for an appointment. All the best xx
 
Thread hopping here but just wanted to say that st Marys has a fantastic reputation, we wanted that hosp but was told no :-( so north manc for us as our hosp has no maternity ward now (I suspect we live quite closely). X
 
Oohh that's good to know mrs v thank you
I'm in the Swinton / Salford area how about you x

I'm in the bury area, so both Fairfield and Rochdale are closed...bloody cuts! Really though if I could go st Marys I would, the care is meant to be second to none...my gp told us its where all the docs wives go when they are in Labour...I can only imagine they get the best xx
 
sounds like the first app i had just had my full app yesterday got bloods done and she took all history n wat not down,glad urs went ok for you xxx
