hello..i'm new to this..so hello
i am now 15 weeks pregnant and do not have a g.p . i live in lewisham and have tried to register at every practice i can find, but have been turned away by all. so far i have seen an nhs walk in doctor twice, once to confirm the pregnancy and once when i had bad cramping at 7 weeks. i was admitted to hospital and had a scan at 7 weeks 3 days, and everything was fine. i am sure i should have my own g.p or have seen a midwife by now, but i cannot find any information on how to sort this out, and no one seems to want to give me advice. the situation is so bad we are considering going private even though we cannot afford to. does anyone have advice on the normal procedure, and what i can do to get the care i need? i am now panicking as i havent had the normal checks, and in the last week or so my symptoms have diminished..no longer aching boobs, cravings etc and my stomach seems to have shrunk. and advice will be much appreciated.
