First midwife appointment

Hey, I’m 7+4 weeks and I haven’t had an appointment through for my first midwife appointment yet, just wondering when you got your appointment through and how many weeks gestation was it for? Just concerned with work and childcare for my toddler how I’m going to juggle it last minute as we haven’t told anyone yet! Thank you

I have my first appointment next Thursday the 19th I’ll be 9 weeks + 6 x

I just had mine at 11w 2d

my first appointment with midwife is on Tuesday, I will be 8 weeks exactly. I can’t remember exactly when I put in the referral for the midwife service but I remember it said to wait 2-3 weeks before hearing from them, but they called me two days after I put in the referral and was super shocked and said I didn’t expect to hear so soon, but they said they’ve got midwives on annual leave etc quite a bit this month so they want to make sure appointments are booked lol. so i’d say on average you should wait 2/3 weeks before hearing from them bcos that was what i was supposed to do (but also different areas might do things different, this is the east sussex service for me) Xx

Ah okay thank you everyone, I self referred at 5 weeks or so but hopefully I hear back soon! Just to sort childcare etc if anything

I’m the same. Self referred on 1st September but haven’t heard anything yet about the midwife appt. I have got the scan appointment though. I’m 7 weeks 4 days today.

I had my first appointment with the midwife at 7w3 days but we assumed I was 8 weeks at the time based on period

I had my first at 8 weeks (telephone) then another in person a few days later

Thank you everyone, I’m 8 weeks tomorrow and still haven’t heard anything or got any appointments
