With Jovi I went to my GP at 8 weeks when I found out and she gave me a referral to the ante natel clinic and they wouldn't see me until I was 16 weeks ... from memory. But anything that had to be done before that my GP took care of (blood tests, NT scan etc).
I rang the hospital within a few days of finding out I was pregnant. I wanted to see the team midwives and I was told they booked out quickly! Well, I called BEFORE i was even 5 weeks pregnant and even then, they were fully booked out!! ARGH, what are people booking in before they've even conceived??!!!
So I went to the antenatal clinic instead (horrible, horrible, never again) and had my first appointment at 10 weeks. This was just to book in and so they could take a detailed medical history. I didnt start my actual apointments until I was 20 weeks and I only had about 5 appointments during my whole pregnancy.
