    My first appointment is 2/19 and I will be exactly 11 weeks. My doctors office acted like this was standard. I have had no issues and feeling great so I havent been to worried.

  • I am 9 weeks and going in a few days. Can't wait!!!
  • I am 37 too and 9 weeks right now. Will have my first appt. This week.
  • I had my 1st appointment at 7 weeks, we did a confirmation ultrasound so I saw the heartbeat but couldn't hear it. I got a prescription to go have blood drawn at a lab and some samples of prenatal vitamins. At 8 weeks I had a follow up to go over lab work and fill out a bunch of forms (state of Florida stuff) My next appointment is at 12 weeks for the NTS ultrasound. I have heard of a lot of women who couldn't make their 1st appointment until 10 weeks though so I think that's more common.
  • I have to wait 3 more weeks and its killing me. I found out at my annual exam so they pushed it 4 weeks after that. I'm 7w today.
  • I'm not going until 10 weeks 2/26 but they wanted me in sometime this week but couldn't with schedules but my receptionist did say she wanted me in before 11 weeks if I wanted to do some of the blood work tests becuz after that they don't test for that after 12 weeks I will get my first us first before seeing the OB with my first son I think I was about 8 weeks and had a vaginal us and then went back around 14 then again at 20 to find out sex so everywhere and every doctor most be different!
  • Got all my blood work and physical done by 8 weeks but now have to wait till 11 weeks to hear the heart beat for the first time, 2/26! I can't wait, I read all these stories of women hearing the heart beat at 6 and 7 weeks and I'm soo jealous!
  • Yep! I had an appointment with the nurse last week (I was 9 weeks) to go over family history and go through paperwork but my appointment with the doctor isn't until this Thursday (I'll be 10 weeks, 4 days)
  • I hear you! We are having our first and I have to wait until 13weeks before I can get into my first appointment. Im super bummed but I did get my name put on a wait list. So hopefully I can get in sooner
  • Yeah, I have to wait until 10 weeks too. Thankfully that is soon! Our first appt is this Friday the 13th (dun dun dun!). This is our first pregnancy and so far I haven't felt pregnant yet. So I am really excited and nervous for this appt. They told us we will get to do our first u/s so we can finally see and hopefully hear (heartbeat) the baby!

  • I got a heartbeat at 8 weeks. And I am now 10 weeks, I have frequent doc appointments
