    Do you have your file? If so on the front of this it tells you at what stage you go to the appointments

    This is the Rotunda's community midwife schedule. I think all the hospitals have slight variations and it'll also depend on your specific risks and public/private choices.

    At the booking in visit they should tell you when your next 2 appointments are.

    Usually it's see GP for registration of pregnancy whenever, obstetric booking visit anytime from 10-20 weeks (!), every 4 weeks between 20 and 30 weeks, fortnightly between 30 and 36 weeks then weekly until D day. Usually alternating between GP and hospital unless complicated. That's the general gist for routine care anyway.

    You don't need to visit gp to confirm pregnancy just contact the maternity hospital. If you want to go private and want a certain consultant get in touch ASAP as they can book up quickly.

    The HSE sent me the schedule once I went to the GP on two of my pregnancies.

    The Rotunda also sent me a schedule once I registered with their semi-private clinic for the booking appointments.....the two didn't quite line up mind you, but I got the gist of them!
