Although its just a registering appointment for a new doctors, but I am joping she will set me off on the right track. I am dieing for a scan as I am worried about baby. Iv heard a few people have lost babys or babys have stopped growing and its made me nervous.
I am wondering if anyone cud tell me what to expect from this registering appointment, she told me it wud take about half an hour but I thought all they wud do is take blood pressure and weigh you, ask a few questions but does it really take half an hour?
 
A registering appointment should take no longer than about 15 minutes (providing you dont have a long list of complicated medical conditions). They will go through family history, medical conditions, medications, height & weight, blood pressure and urine sample. That should be about it.
Hopefully this will get the ball rolling for your ante-natal referral - although most hospitals let you self-refer anyway, look on their website under maternity. Good luck :)
