In my area, you self refer online x

You don’t usually have an appointment with the GP as your care is under the community midwives instead. Usually you self-refer and then they book you in for early appointments. If you phone your GP surgery, they can usually advise how to self-refer

Early pregnancy unit at your local hospital I rang the gp for anti sickness and gaviscon and I’m only 4 week got my hcg level test today x

The NHS seem to be encouraging self referrals at the moment and you tend to be seen by your local midwife team around 8/9 weeks for the booking in appointment. The NHS website has more specific information for your area about what you need to do now you're expecting

I’m also 7 weeks, got my first appointment next Friday. As others mentioned above, this was via self referral

Im 8 weeks now and self-referred on Monday. Still waiting for an appointment x

You self refer with the hospital you want to give birth at and it’s not typically with a GP but your midwife that takes care of the pregnancy x

Self refer online! Just type it into google it’ll come up x
