Is this weird?

La
So I'm almost 10 wks pregnant & I had my first appointment with the midwife last wk. Honestly I haven't even had this pregnancy confirmed yet because when I 1st found out I was pregnant I rang my GP & I was told that they don't confirm pregnancies & the receptionist told me to go & buy a pregnancy test! 😱 I told her I obviously took a home pregnancy test this is why I'm calling & I had a miscarriage the month before so I would have thought that they might want to see me earlier. Anyway she said I had to book an appointment with the midwife so fast forward 4 wks later & I'm at the appointment with my midwife & she asked me if I had been to the Dr to get the pregnancy confirmed I said no, this is my 1st appointment regarding this pregnancy. So I was expecting to get some sort of blood or urine checked to confirm that I was actually pregnant but nothing. She just have me some paperwork to fill out & booked me in so get a scan at the hospital in a couple wks. She also came to visit me at home yesterday & was asking me about my birth plan etc. My question is, is it normal that I'm almost 10 wks & getting all this information about hospital bookings & birthing plans (I also got the NHS prescription exemption form) yet still haven't had a blood test so they actually know if I'm pregnant or not? 
Ps I did ask my midwife when I would get a blood test & she basically said that I wouldn't be getting it yet. 😣
Any help appreciated?
