I've done a home pregnancy test, and it's come back saying I'm between 1-2 weeks (clear blue test) when do I book in to the doctors? Is it too soon?

Congratulations!!!! Add another 2 weeks on to what the test says so your approximately 3-4 weeks. You normally have your first booking appointment after 8 weeks, but this varies in different areas. I called my gp surgery to find out the next steps in my local area & was advised to call back when I was nearer 8 weeks to make my first appointment xx
