Pregnant with first and clueless

Hi all, I think I'm around 6 weeks pregnant. Well that's what all my apps say, although I am already showing. A few women have said they think I'm further along than 6 weeks. I wasn't thin before being pregnant but wasnt larger either. I gave my details to the midwife over a week ago but haven't heard anything. Do you think I should call again or wait? When do they normally get in touch? Thank you

Hi SamSam

Congratulations Smile this is my first and I'm also clueless! I'm 15 weeks now. I had to wait about two weeks on my midwife appointment coming through I think. I remember being really really bloated about the 6-8 weeks mark so you might find it actually goes down a bit as i think I felt bigger back then than I do now haha

Congratulations! I'm 29 week and 6 days with my first. I had my first midwife appointment at 8 weeks, although i thought I was 10 weeks at the time! I just rang the GP and booked an appointment (think it was about 2 week wait).

Then I had a few weeks until a scan, but at the scan was only 8 weeks! (thought I was 12) so then had another 4 week wait before my actual 12 week scan! Didn't see the midwife then until 16 weeks.

Haha oh good hopefully it's just I'm bloated because I feel huge and so not ready to be further along haha. Aww congratulations to you too!! Hopefully I get an appointment through soon then and actual have it officially confirmed...although my boyfriend said he'd be sure by my mood swings alone haha

Congratulations to you too. I rang the doctors and they just told me to ring the midwife. Gave the midwife my details and she just said ok thanks...I was like wait what do I do now. All she said was nothing just wait to hear. I'm still in a daze I think haha just want someone to confirm it tho a few tests have confirmed it so far haha xx
