Subject : checks over xmas

im sure this is a slightly premature question.. im 36 wks xmas eve and looking at notes am due to have check then, asuming my gp and hosp clinics will be closed from then possibly up to news years,how would i have my check? has anyone been in this situation, am just curious as to when i would have it esp as technically i am term-ish and could go into laour anytime from then.

I know when I was expecting no1, I had a check due a bank holiday Monday and they came to the house. probably worth checking with the MW at your next appt just to put your mind at rest

Xmas eve isn't a bank holiday so your appointment should be fine. GP, MW and clinics will be open in btwn xmas & new year..... You can always contact the ward if you have any problems over the b/h Smile

Hi there

My due date for DD2 was christmas eve - I can't quite remember when I was checked before my due date but I remember the mw coming out to see me at home on 27th Dec

I guess the best thing would be to ask your mw what they usually do?

My mum's a midwife and she often works on Christmas day/new year's day etc. I know where she is they do house visits and clinics on Christmas eve and then open again the day after boxing day. I'm sure they'll have it covered.
