Does anyone know where I’d get a sick note for work? Would it be my GP or my midwife?

What do you say.? And how does the first appointment usually go? I'm very nervous
I got a letter from my trust today saying I've been judged low risk so some of my midwife appointments can be online video calls because of "covid". Ok for one thing it's 2024, for another thing, you are meant to be using a tape measure, checking blood pressure and checking urine sample... how is it ok to miss all t...
To all the mommas that have been with me on my pregnancy journey does my beta rising look okay? Keep in mind that I’m 6 weeks
Does anyone have any hints or tips or things that I might have forgotten about? I’m starting to worry that I’m missing something obvious as both my consultant and pre op appointments felt really relaxed and casual and I didn’t seem to get a list of dos and donts 🤔

Is this an evap Line? Got another piccy of 2 of them I the comments
Can anyone breakdown the actual meaning of this for me? I saw my midwife on Monday for a follow up appointment as I am high risk. The notes she’s put in seem normal but I’m wondering how i should prepare for labour, I’m high risk for multiple reasons for pre term labour so I just want to feel a little more prepared
