How to cope with 2 under 2

Congratulations on the pregnancy! 🥰 Do you maybe have an early pregnancy unit you can call to speak to one of the midwife’s there whilst waiting for your appointment with your midwife? Maybe they can run some blood tests etc and talk to you about your risks? Really bad of the midwife to cancel you twice already and such a longer wait until December! Hope you are okay otherwise? This first trimester for me is already so much different to my first to so can relate on that aspect! Xx

@Sasha thank you. We don't have a early pregnancy unit. Most of the maternity ward has closed most of the wards due to staffing issues. When I first found out about this pregnancy I had three lots of blood taken. Was told I needed to have bloods taken every 4 weeks. That was 6 weeks ago.. when I went for my first appointment I sat in the doctors waiting room 2.5 hours with my baby girl. I ended up going down to ask the receptionist who rang her up and told her. She came and apologies and told me she can't see me for the full appointment as in 5 mins time she has her next onces. And she would do the rest of my appointment on the phone. This was last month.
