Hey Smile ...oh just the usual...urine test, checking for blood pressure, listen in to baby's heartbeat and measure fundal height.

As above for what they normally do. As far as I'm aware with current restrictions the first time you see someone in my area is 28 weeks.

If you have your midwife's number text her to ask if it's going ahead.

Just call and check in advance - mine is still going ahead in person in a coyote of weeks

The 25 week appointment is only for first time mothers, so presumably isn't that important. It does seem to be one of the first to be cancelled in lots of areas so I'd ring just to confirm it's going ahead.

I've got mine later this month and been wondering the same thing.
I'm supposed to have my whooping cough vaccination and get my matb1 form for work at this appointment. Really wanted my urine checked too as that showed some protein in it last time.

Anyway, it's out of my hands. I'll just ring up a few days before and see what they say.

Both of my 16 week and 25 week app have been cancelled. 😔

Hi all, I had my 25 week
Appt cancelled but they’ve moved it to 28 weeks now. Maybe contact your midwife to see... As I mentioned I didn’t like not having my BP checked, urine etc. They also mentioned something about bloods done aswell normally. Hope we can all get in :(
