Hello, I found out a few days ago I am pregnant!

Very unexpected, and I don't know where to go next. Do I make an appointment with the Polyclinic or the hospital? Is it better to go private?

This will be my first baby so any and all help/advice is very much appreciated. I have lived here for over 2 years, full time employed with my fiance and we live in Bugibba.

Thank you!!!! <3

Congratulations, there have been previous posts on the subject of pregnancy so if you read them you may find the answers you need, personally I would go and see your local doctor in that way he will have records of your visit, you will have to pay him whereas the clinics are free.   The last time I went to our doctor was two years ago and I paid 10€.   Good luck.
