I just went in for my first betas today and will go again Friday. The first OB appt will be on Tuesday the 28th but I will only be 5w2days so no ultrasound. I'm hoping to get a game plan from my OB then since I lost my last pregnancy.
BFP#1 4/17/2013 EDD 12/25/2013, MC 5/17/2013 8 weeks 3 days D&C 5/18/2013
BFP#2 1/20/2014 EDD 9/28/2014, Baby Evie born on 9/23/2014 at 8:50pm. 6 lbs 15 oz!
I'm going in 2/10, which I think is about week 8 for me. They would have scheduled me the week before but I'll be out of town that week. This is all brand new to me... first pregnancy, first OB. I have no idea what to expect!
I think there is probably a really big group of us who haven't had our first appointments yet.
Unless you have some special issue, most OB won't see you until 12 weeks; although some will see you at 8-10 weeks for an intake appointment. Unless there is a history of loss or other medical issues there really is no reason to have an ultrasound before 12 weeks.
We have our nurse intake apt on Feb 17th. Most boring appointment ever! Then because of our loss last Oct we will have a dating ultrasound sometime that week or the next. We're just waiting to get a call from the scheduler with a date/time. We will be 8-9 weeks at that point.
My first appt is Feb 19th, just after 10 weeks. Last time around my first appointment was at 9w, to hear the heartbeat on a doppler. Hoping for an ultrasound this time, too, but I'm not sure. Last time my first u/s was the 12-week scan.

I don't go until February 3rd - I will be 8w3d! They said we would have an ultrasound that day!! The next week and a half are going to drive me insane!
I had my intake appointment at the OB office yesterday, and I have my first appointment with the OB scheduled for February 20 (I'll be 12 weeks by then). We'll only get to the HB, and they'll do fundal height checks and all that. I don't get an u/s until around 20 weeks.
I might be getting an NT scan earlier than that. DH and I are still going back and forth on it.

My appointment is tomorrow! I will be 8 weeks & I have been anxiously awaiting the appt! Don't have much of an idea as to what to expect, but hopefully we get an u/s or hear a heartbeat or something! I think it will make this whole pregnancy seem so much more real:)
My ob scheduled me for 3 appt a when I called first check up is on 1/28 u/a on 2/18 and a "open ob " on 2/20 the office is a rotation office so I get to meet them all
I still don't even have an appointment made! I'm changing insurance so I'm still waiting for a list of OBs who are on the new plan.
I saw my GP last week because I thought I was getting a UTI (I wasn't- just paranoid of getting a fever). He tried a fetal doppler on me but said it was way too early to expect to hear anything. The doc told me not to stress about the first appointment- as long as it's in the first trimester, he went over some basics (take your prenatals, stay healthy, rest, etc.) I'm glad I went in because I feel a little less annoyed with the no appointment situation.
I'm on hold with the insurance company now trying to get some info now though. At least I can answer work emails while I wait.
My sister is a certified midwife and she said I really don't need one until about 12 weeks or so. I will probably make an appt for then in a couple weeks.
I don't have my appointment till Feb 3 and I will be 7.5 weeks. It is just a b/w, family history appointment so we won't see anything for another week or so after that.

I just had bloodwork done today with no appointment. Likely I will be waiting until 12 weeks until my first appointment. You've got plenty of time to see the baby.

My first appt is at 6w7d, next week. That seems a little early - when I made the appointment, the secretary said they wanted to see me around 8 weeks, and this is a whole week earlier than that... So... I suppose we should still be able to see a heartbeat, measure to estimate a due date, and so on.. Should be all good. I am looking forward to seeing the little one!
One week from today! The 29th. No idea if there will be an u/s. I am not counting on it, and I'm guessing they will have me come in the following week. But I can always hope they'll sneak one in! I'll be 7w3d.
I've only seen my primary care physician, and only because I was really sick with a sinus infection when I found out I was pregnant. She asked me to come in so we could go over how I can stay healthy and switch my meds. She did a simple urine test to confirm the pregnancy. That was at 4.5 weeks.
My first prenatal appointment isn't until the 5th, and I'll be at just about 9 weeks at that point.
my appt is on the 31st. not sure if they're going to be doing an US that day or not, but I had one at 6w2d (that's how I found out I was even pregnant) and there was already a strong heartbeat
Wow soo many haven't had them yet. I had my beta blood work but my RE only did 2 of those. My first u/s isn't until 2/4 so I really want these next 2 weeks to fly by. This is my first pregnancy so I am worried there might not be something there. Trying not to think of it too much.
Me 29 DH 30 Unexplained IF TTC since wedding May 2012. IUI #1 11/5/13-BFN. IUI #2 12/5/13-BFN. IUI #3-12/30/14. All three with Femara CD 3-7 and Ovidrel trigger. +HPT 1/13/14 First +ever!!! Beta #1 195 Beta #2 1/15-533. Ultrasound on 2/4 showed one bean. EDD 9/22/14. Team Green turned Team Blue-Baby Conner arrived on 9/19/14.
I had a blood test last week, but my appointment today (6w0d) was snowed out. My office likes to do an u/s at 7 weeks so I'm not sure if they'll do it along with my intake appt or make me schedule two...
I go in tomorrow for the first appt with the nurse, then I go in on Monday to see the doctor and get our first u/s. I will be 7w1d on Monday. Dying with excitement!!!
My doctor's office usually doesn't see patients until around the 8th week, unless its a high risk patient.
My first appointment isn't until Feb 7th!! I should've just tested last week when I was 1 day late instead of waiting it out, now I've gotta wait longer for an appointment!
