Completely in the dark ... need some help!

okay ... let start at the begining

I had a bit of spotting last month thought id got lucky and just had a light month, then I got my first BFP about 3 weeks ago so worked the dates back to the spotting, about 6 weeks preg looking good :)

Went to my GP this week and apparently that doesnt count and she thinks im more like 10 weeks, which makes much more sense in relation to how ive been feeling for the last few months and explains a lot of the tiredness and sick feeling ive had (just thought I was run down).

I filled out at a form at my GP for referral to the midwife and being so far on kind of expected to have heard from someone by now ... he EDD puts me at 11+1 and ive heard nothing from anyone yet?

I have no idea about scans and no idea about tests or referrals to hospital, is the midwife at my doctors or the hospital? Tried to get some information from my GP on Monday and the gist of the conversation was that the midwife would call me and explain everything, but ive not heard anything yet?

I have no idea what should be happening now, if anything, maybe I am just being a bit impatient, but please can someone point me in the right direction!?!

I would call you doctor again or the midwife (if they gave you a number) - if you want the NT test this can only be done up to 13+6 so you would need to get a date for the scan booked soon. Just pester them! Oh and congrats :)
