Hello,
This is my 2nd pregnancy and I cant remember at what point I was contacted by the midwife to organise an appointment and I cant remember when ypu have your first scan.
I have alot of anxiety this time around as had quite a bad experience the first time and registered on my pregnancy notes nearly 3 weeks ago, does anyone know when I might be contacted or if I can contact someone to find out ? Sorry just a bit anxious not having any plans, appointments or idea on what's happening x

Currently pregnant with baby number 2, my first is only 16 months so both recent. Your first appointment is your booking appointment which is usually 8-10 weeks and I only got the appointment through a week or so before, first scan is 11-14 weeks x

You should self refer for maternity care and your first midwife/booking appointment is from 8-10ish weeks.
The first scan is normally between 11-14 weeks but mostly done at 12 weeks.
