Sit back relax and take it easy !! Stop stressing. There isn't a great deal that happens in the first trimester.

You may need a referral from your GP to get you into the hospital. I had one from mine. When I had the referral I rang Lyell Mc (in my case) and said I am x amount of weeks pregnant and can I get booked in with your antenatal care. They then organise a date over the phone with you for your 1st appointment.

Unless you are really unsure of how many weeks you are a dating scan is not necessary, but you can mention your previous m/carriage on the phone to the hospital and ask them if it is possible to get a dating scan. They will advise you if they think you need one or not and how to go about it.

The nuchal fold test is an u/sound with blood test and determines if your child is at risk of Down Syndrome.
