25 week appointment cancelled....

Hi have other UK first time mums had their 25 week appointment cancelled too??

I’m feeling fine and no concerns etc so I know I don’t necessarily need the be ‘seen’.

I’m just annoyed that the government have opened up theatres and gyms yet pregnant women can’t be seen at their appointments!

No mine hasn’t been cancelled mines Thursday. My midwives have been quiet good throughout all this tbh. Not had any cancelled and always been face to face x

I think they’ve changed a few things as this is my second baby and I wasn’t supposed to be seen until 28 weeks as this is when they do some more blood tests. My appointment today was measuring the belly and listening to baby but really it shouldn’t of been till 28 weeks. They have to do bloods at 28 so hopefully they’ll reschedule you for then! X

Wow that’s great that you’ve been able to attend all of your appointments. I have only attended my booking appointment face to face, my 16 week appointment was over the phone and now my 25 week one that should be tomorrow has been cancelled. I do wonder when I will see my midwife again 😳

I am FTM and had my 25 weeks appointment on the telephone. Still haven’t met my midwife! I have the 28 weeks appointment face-to-face this Sunday . I can’t wait to hear my baby’s heartbeat. Feels like we are being ignored a bit, especially mums with a low-risk pregnancy 🙄

My 25 week appointment was over the phone , I saw my midwife at 8 weeks at my booking appointment and then was all on the phone untill yesterday with my 28 week appointment , and that was because it was a blood test ....

I had my 25 week appointment last week and have 28 week appointment next week. It was first time I’ve had an appointment apart from a brief chat with a midwife at my 20 week scan.

Maybe it depends on the area as I had a 25 week appt and this is my 2nd. They had originally said they weren’t doing appts at 25 weeks but it changed when some of the restrictions were reduced.

Yes, mine wasn’t even scheduled in!! When I contacted them they said they have changed the appointments asked are not doing 25 weeks unless you’re high risk
