Informing midwife

Hi ladies,
When should I be informing my midwife I am pregnant. I’m 6 weeks tomorrow. I’ve been putting it off as it’s early day and was wondering should I call Monday or will waiting another won’t harm?

My GP wouldn't put me in touch with a midwife until eight weeks. Unless you have some specific concerns, I'd wait until then.

Your booking appointment should be between 8&10 weeks so you'll need to let them know soon.
I called up when I was 5 weeks pregnant and couldn't get my first appointment until 10 weeks as they were so busy.
