Not much, go over blood results and anything that came up on scan, MIGHT listen for HB and book in next appointment. In and out in less than 10mins if anything like mine.

What Sundae said + gave urine sample (tested for protein, etc), blood pressure check, listened for baby's heartbeat (she found mine, although was told before she checked that sometimes it's hard to find it that early so not to worry if she couldn't). Basically, all the stuff they do at every appointment. Think that's the one where she booked me in for antenatal classes as well.

Same as what the others said at mine aswell

Oh yes of course, wee and BP, they do that at every appointment, so remember to take or do your wee before you go in :)

Mine took blood pressure, urine sample, took some routine bloods (a repeat as my first lot clotted so I think if you've already had your bloods taken they'll just discuss the results.) We listened to baby's heartbeat and she had a poke around (no idea what she was looking for.) Booked me in for one class and booked my 20 week scan.
