14 weeks and still no booking appointment or 12 week scan.

Hi I am approximately 14 weeks pregnant if my dates are correct and I haven't had any appointments with a midwife or sonographer for my scan. I have phoned numerous times and keep getting no further is there anything else I can do?

Thanks

Are you calling the right number? What's their reply when you told them it's not been sorted yet? as you really should have had your booking and first scan (at least a date!)

If despite persisting you've not gotten anywhere I could suggest asking 1. For a manager when you call, 2. If it's via hospital you could try speaking to PALS (patient advice liaison service) I'm not sure if they cover community too but they might have more info

I would double check the number as you can't get an appointment without speaking to a midwife, what I did was first step is doctor to confirm and then they give you the numbers for various children centres where midwifes are placed and then they give you an appointment to meet with them x

Same happened to me - first appointment with GP and vaccine and got the number to call midwife.

Good luck!x

I am living in Bradford but want to have my baby at Leeds I think this is what has taken so much time. I went to the doctors and he told me he would do a refferal to the midwife, I waited 3 weeks and heard nothing so decided to phone leeds to which I found out they had no refferal for me. I had been almost by passed I then spoke to the midwife who faxed it over to Leeds straight away on have know been on the system for a week but they are saying my details have to go through a call centre before they can allocate me an appointment as it hasn't come through their system yet. I have never heard of this and it's really starting to annoy me I just want piece of mind and to know I am actually pregnant. Thankyou for your replies. 😊

I would ask GP to refer again asap. If you live in BRadford, why don't you have all your appointments in Bradford then closer to your due date change your GP to a Leeds one.

I would try to make contact one last time, and if you do not get a satisfactory response I will find another source for my prenatal care. It is very important for you to be able to contact your provider at any time because you never know if you might actually have an emergency period it is essential that you feel comfortable and confident with the medical care that you are receiving For Your Precious bundle of John that is on the way. After all the lives of both you and your baby are counting on the quality of care that you receive during your pregnancy Journey. It is not too late for you to find Androzene quality prenatal care with another provider! Good luck and don't settle 4 Half Baked prenatal care! Thank you for sharing your journey!

Ring the antenatal department at Leeds hospital and explain the circumstances again. They will be able to tell you if they have any record of you or not!

I would also ring your GP back and ask to speak to the practise mannager (that should give them the kick up the bum they need). Just explain the emtional impact it's having on you!

Mothercare at foster square in Bradford and the one in Leeds do early pregnancy scans for i believe £25 when I looked for mine... you may be waiting weeks for an appointment once the referal has completed, having one of them may help ease your mind.

Hope you get it sorted soon! Xx
