Ring your GP.. Has your consultant got a pregnancy plan in place that you're GP is aware of? My GP was always the one I went to to get my clexane jabs before seeing the consultants but that's because I am on warfarin all the time (not sure about your situation) so they had to move me over..

I would suggest trying your GP then if no joy there get the hosp to page your consultant or a registra for a script.

Congratuations and try and relax (easier said than done i know)

Hi congratulations, really good news for you, another tact you could try is to ring the Consultant's secretary and ask for his or her email address, then write to her but title the email very urgent and marked for consultant with all your contact details and phone numbers this usually works when I need something urgent.

Congrates! I'm currently 37 weeks and fingers crossed all is going well. The main thing you need to do is don't panic. As long as you are on clexane/fragmin and not on warfarin anymore relax.

Your obviously being looked after with early scans already. Just take one step at a time and enjoy being pregnant..

Fingers crossed for you
