Some I am 11 weeks on Friday and I'm a bit confused about somethings. It's my first baby so I'm only doing what I have read. When I went to the GP at just over 8 weeks she kind of looked at me as if to ask why I was there. I have just called the midwife as read I should be having my booking in appointment between 8-12 weeks and she said well it's a bit early to hear from us. As this is my first don't know what is normal and what isn't and starting to worry I'm going to miss care or that things I have read are wrong. Sorry for the long message x
