I phoned my Drs surgery today and asked for a booking appointment with the midwife (i'm 8 weeks). The receptionist asked if I had seen the Dr yet and I said no, she said I had to see the Dr first.
When I was pregnant with DD I just went straight to the midwife (same surgery) and it didn't seem like I had missed out on any care.
What will the Dr do? Anecdotally anyone I know who has been to the Dr first and said they are pregnant as been greeted with a bemused "right and how can I help you?" type response.
