Hi Ren

Nobody seemed interested at all in seeing me until we were 12 weeks (just one trip to the GP to confirm, but even he didn't do another test as he said HPT was enough) - but booking in can be a problem if you wait until then in some areas (both for hospitals and obs, apparently). We're in northern Sydney.

You could go and see the ob of your choice for a pap smear before you go and as an existing patient you shouldn't have any problem booking in as soon as you get back (esp if you tell them the situation). Make sure to take extra care with DVT if you are on a long flight when pg.
