Hey all! I have my first midwife appointment on Monday, called the ‘booking appointment’. I will be 7 weeks and although we acknowledged it’s a little early, does anyone know what happens during this appointment?
I miscarried last September and was debating getting an early scan but I honestly think it’ll cause me more anxiety, especially if I go and they can’t see anything. Have decided to let nature take its course, it’s so hard though not to constantly worry!
Also, I’m so ridiculously tired, really sore boobs (especially nips) and I’m hungry all the time. Odd amount of nausea but no sickness! Anyone else having mood swings as well? Just feel so irritated at everything 🤣😱 xx

From what I remember first time round, the first appt os mostly about getting information about your general health, family health history etc. set you up with maternity notes, take blood pressure etc
