Congrats on the pregnancy Sarah.

I went to the docs today for my first appointment - just to get the referral to the birth centre I would like to birth at (she checked my blood pressure, weight etc), and to get a referral to pathology to have the blood and urine test results required by the birth centre (blood group and antibody screen, rubella, syphillis, hepatitis B,C & HIV etc).

That is all you need!! Once you have the results from the blood & urine they should send that back to your doctor and they will ask to see you if necessary and forward the results to the place you are choosing to birth at.

HTH,
