with two preschoolers for 1 1/2 hours to see my GP first?

South Wales-cardiff-if that helps

no reason NOT to see them but can't really be ar$ed, all they are going to do-all they EVER have done-is fill out a referal form.

THis is baby #3, I KNOW the drill

Morning
You can probably self refer, just call up and ask for an appointment with the mw, the receptionists will soon tell you either way

good luck and cogratulations

I just rang the receptionist and said I was pg. Asked whether I had to waste the doctor's time or if the mw would ring me direct. MW rang me direct to come and see me a few weeks later
