I had my first appointment with the doctor today to tell them I am pregnant. I had the most postive and wonderful 10 minutes with him! He was so lovely I came out of there feeling a renewed excitement!
Something that I was especially impressed with was that he took swabs for Strep B and Bacterial Vaginosis - both which he said can put you at risk of preterm labour; something that threatened me last time at 34 weeks but was put down to a urine infection, nothing else was tested for though at the time. He has also advised me to ask to midwife to test for Chickenpox immunity when I have my bloods done in a couple of weeks as there is no record of it on my file. He was pretty thorough and really pleased for me!
6 weeks on Friday so almost half way to the big 12! Midwife appointment at the end of the month too
Hope everyone in their first few weeks is feeling good xxx
