Pregnant on the Mini Pill

I've just found out I'm pregnant with my first baby, and although a little shocked, I am thrilled!

The main reason for the shock is due to me being on Cerelle mini pill. The problem I have now is that nobody seems to be able to tell me how many weeks gone I am because I haven't had a period since being on the mini pill! I know I am over 3 weeks, but that's all I know!

Has this happened to anyone else before? What's the best (and quickest) route I can go down to try and find out? I have a midwife appointment tomorrow so hoping to have more info then, but I guess I won't be having a scan tomorrow! Are there any other methods the midwife can use to provide me with a due date?

Thanks, :)

Hi there

The best advice I can give you is to chat it all through with your midwife tomorrow, they can help work out where you're at or may be able to organise a dating scan, and feel your abdomen. Your midwife is the best person to see.

I hope this helps

Best wishes

Katherine
