Question about Booking In bloods

[WhatsTheWordHummingbird]

I had blood taken at Booking In last friday. I wont see my MW til 16 weeks (currently ten), so if there is anything amiss with my bloods, do I just find out then? I was worried about ny iron levels.

I know with other blood tests I ring the surgery after two days and get the results but as this is just standard bloods and not a specific test I dont even know whether the reults will go on my file or just stay with the MW.

I had my booking in bloods taken today - they said they call me, if there is a problem, but otherwise I won't hear until I go back at 16 weeks. It might vary between GP practices though, I guess there is no harm in calling up to check if you're worried?

My guess is that if you had low iron they'd want to do something about it so somebody would get in touch....

You'll get a call if there's anything amiss; otherwise, you'll probably not hear from anyone till your next appt.

They'll phone you within 48 hours or so if anything shows up. Otherwise you can see the report at your next appointment.

I saw a midwife after my 12 week scan (I'd already had a booking visit at 9 weeks) and she went through the results but as foodie said if anything shows up they contact you.

I got a phone call when one of my results was unusual. It took a couple of weeks though. If you have normal results then they go through these at the 16 week appointment.

I had my booking bloods 2 weeks ago and got them in the post this morning to add to my notes. They did get me to fill out an SAE at booking though, so I was expecting them.

I had my booking in appointment around 9 weeks and was given my blood results by the midwife after the 12 week scan x

My midwife always says to me no news is good news :) she. Will ring you if there is anything of concern come back from your bloods. X
