Hi can I have a private post?
Pic below.
I was at the doctors on the 25th of April to get my coil removed as it was sore. The doctors took it out and said it wasn’t fitted correctly (had it fitted 9 months ago). I had a smear and bloods done at the same time. On Saturday I revived a letter from the community health visitor telling me I’m pregnant?! I rushed to take a test and it came back negative? Has anyone experienced anything like this before? How could the health visitor know without the doctor telling me? The letter is also dated the same day I was at the doctors? Help a worried mummy out 🙈🙈

Could you reply for me, the letter says:
Dear parent/ carer
My name is **** I work for ***** health visiting team. I have been recently allocated as a named health visitor for both of your children. I am also aware that you are currently pregnant and I would like to offer you antenatal home visit. I have booked to see you on ********
Thanks x
I would say it’s maybe an error on the HV part. She’s likely to keep a letter template and has maybe forgot to take that bit out. Could be wrong but that’s what I’d think xx
The letter has many spelling mistakes and just doesn’t look like a letter we would send out. Have you googled the number that is on the letter? I’d go to your GP with that letter and show them tommorow
Also Why does it say Dear Parent / Carer?
If it’s not been fitted properly you could be pregnant. Also remember you can get a false negative but not a false positive. Blood tests are a lot more accurate than sticks too. You could only be 1-3 weeks but it just won’t show on a stick x
Oh my god!!! It is the correct Scottish NHS logo…. my letters are sent to me in black and white and are headed dear parent / guardian… why would anyone hoax her? If she’s not pregnant she ain’t gonna let a random stranger into her home!! Plus read the comments … clearly someone above has worked with this HV so she is a legitimate HV!! She clearly had a chance of being pregnant if coil wasn’t in correctly… the blood test may show a positive but too soon for pee stick…. but again… it may well be an error on HV part… and for the grammar and punctuation … where ever humans are involved there’s always a possibility if human error!! Contact doctor surgery tomorrow xx
It’s the NHS Scotland logo and I know this lady as we trained together as health visitors. She’s a lovely very kind warm person, so just give her a ing tomorrow, I’m sure there’s an explanation xx
They certainly would not be telling you that you are pregnant via a letter. If this is genuine then it has been sent as an error. Call your gp and ask on their procedures around using community HV’s, i.e for what reason would they visit and ask them if it says one has booked a home visit.
I had a nurse phone me once to tell me the scan for pregnancy needed to be moved as the person doing it had phoned in sick and they had no cover it was to there horror when I told them I wasn’t pregnant and I had no idea why I had a scan booked good job I seen the funny side really
A pregnancy test will only come up positive when you are about a couple weeks pregnant I believe? Correct me if I’m wrong? So the tests they done, this early shows you are clearly pregnant, but I would personally give them a call first to check that is correct.
But congrats if it’s true 🙂
If this letter is genuine, the positive would of come from your blood test, and you maybe too early to show on a pee stick! And by error the gp surgery may not of let you know yet. Ring first thing?
It doesn’t even look like an NHS letter? Letters I’ve had don’t have that logo. And if it’s the first you are hearing about it they definitely wouldn’t just pop it in a letter……? I’d definitely be calling your GP
Don’t ring the number on the letter!! Go on Google and find out exactly what number it is for your hv and ring that. It doesnt look right to me x
The coil can cause an ectopic pregnancy and that can cause a negative result please do get checked out hope I haven’t worried you best thing todo is ring gp xx
When I fell pregnant I got the same letter saying they would do a home visit befor the baby was born the doctors did bloods so it’s proberly shown up on them and they get the information sent to them by the doctors I don’t no about he logo but it could allways be a photo copy which would be black and white they allways have is on them anyway x
It’s from a health visitor and she’s been allocated as a named health visitor for both her ( the posters) children and says she is aware she is pregnant and offers a home visit. And to call If the date given is not suitable.
You should definitely phone your doctors surgery and find out if they sent the letter, if they didn’t maby call the police and ask them what you should do about it? xx
It’s a fake letter hun the NHS bit would be blue and tbh there aren’t any cancellation numbers incase you are busy on the date provided x
Have u had a baby within them last year? Is it not law now u get a named person to come and visit u? I would give them a call tmor and check it x
May be a mistake…I had my little boy on the 3rd January this year and they sent me a letter saying sorry for the loss of your child!! Rang them up and they said someone would be in contact straight away…surprise surprise I’m still waiting! 😡
Phone up the hospital. This doesnt look right the logo doesnt look right and the date is wrong Wednesday is the 10th thursday is the 11th, phone them up and theyll set you straight x
Its looks like a possible fake logo your best ringing your hospital or gp this is how my NHS logo on my letter is x
This is my logo. I would contact health centre tomorrow x
Could be a mistake ring your own doctors surgery in the morning incase they muddled your letter with someone else’s
Let us know if you’re pregnant I think it’s awful if that’s how u find out. I got pregnant with coil in x
Maybe she’s got late info. I got this when my son was a year old x
