Still no word from St Thomas’ Hospital…

I had a similar thing with St Mary’s hospital in west London. I then contacted them and the person that picked up the referral entered my last period date wrong where I was 11 weeks they had me down as 5 weeks so give them a call. You don’t want to miss any appointments

I submitted my self referral to St Thomas’ on 11 Dec and haven’t heard anything either. Will let you know if I do hear anything! Merry Christmas x

Completely normal to not hear anything till week 10 minimum.

Same here, did a self referral on 11/12 and haven’t heard from them yet…

I’d call them. For comparison, I’m with another London hospital and did my self-referral on 18/12 and already have my Booking appointment and scan in the diary. Admittedly, I’m already in the system as this will be my 2nd there, so that may have made things quicker. Either way, if in doubt give them a call.

There’s no point calling till after NY they will be running on a skeleton staff.

I also self referred on 13th Dec, haven’t heard anything back yet. I did call them to see if I could get an early scan and see how long the process takes, they said it’s usually 10 working days, but they are currently working on a backlog.

Don’t worry, they’ll send texts with your appointments, they were great in my last pregnancy, and I had all my appointments booked weeks in advance x

Update: Just got a call from my midwife this afternoon to book my booking appointment for when I’m about ~8 weeks. Hopefully you’ll all hear back soon!

@Joana I just got a text with my first appointment from st Thomas, they’ve sent me a date and that’s all.

I logged into my chart, and it has much more information in there x

I just got a link to sign up for my chart app. first appointment at 9+6 and next at 12+6. feels a bit late😅

Thanks all… still haven’t heard anything. Called them and they mentioned the backlog… will be checking in again in one week’s time!

Hi all - I’m due in October but wondering if anyone could share how your heard from the first booking in appointment? I called them and they just said wait. (I’m with St Thomas’ by the way). Thanks!

@Krupa they will send you a text message to register with the app. also there will be a text message from nhs to see your appointment details
