I need a rant - moved 4 weeks ago to totally new area so obviously needed to register at new gp's .... <snip> ...Am 10 weeks tomorrow too so am going to be at least 12 weeks before I get to see a midwife

This'll make you feel better - I'm 14 weeks and I only get to see my midwife for the booking appt tomorrow!!!

(((Hugs))) I understand your frustration Try throwing being an "old" mum into the mix as well as being a "first timer"

ooh, tigster, that does make me feel better, thank you! Oh god, never thought about the old thing too - I am 35 so that probably makes me old in maternity world too doesn't it?! Can add that to my paranoias!

Just after a few opinions please ladies

The name we've chosen for piglet is Caitlin, but I'm not sure which is the best spelling: Caitlin or Caitlyn or even Katelyn.

What do you think?

Hearing all your woes with getting booking in appointments makes me think I don't have it so bad after all.

We have a booking in appointment with the midwife when we get BFP (no need for referral from GP), then we get referred for early bird scan at 7-8 weeks, then 12 week scan, 20 week scan, 32 week scan then scans every 2 weeks after that until delivery.

In between we get regular midwife and obstetrician appointments. The ob is really nice she doesn't make us drink gallons of water before a scan either. She says it is a horrid and uneccessary thing to get a pregnant woman to do. Infact we give a urine sample immediately before every scan which somewhat proves her point.

Sorry, don't mean to make anyone feel any worse thought you may find that interesting to hear.

Another for Caitlyn

Nope, you're not allowed the "old" paranoia, I'm reserving that for myself - I'll be 40 :rotfl:
