antenatal care- when did you hear?

[Pinklilly]

Hi all,

I have completed a self referral for antenatal care- currently estimated at 5 weeks according to last menstrual period. I gather they don't send you an appointment until about 8 weeks but did anyone receive confirmation that they have received your referral and are processing it?

I tried to call the clinic and no answer so just wondered how long it took for you all to hear back?

Thanks for your help

It will be different in different areas.

I'm in greater Glasgow and Clyde health board. I phoned to self refer at 5 weeks and they gave me my date for booking appointment (10 weeks) and scan (12+5) over the phone then followed up with letters

Hi thanks for your help I decided to try and keep calling and got through today and booked an appointment for January so many thanks.
