First Appt. tomorrow!

We have our first appointment tomorrow!  What can we expect??  We're using my primary care doctor that I've used since I was little.  Very excited that I don't have to search for another doctor/ob-gyn!

Congratulations on the baby.  That first appointment is always very exciting.

The appointment is really just collecting a bunch of info.  They'll likely go over your family history.  They also take a lot of blood for various screenings.  Then Q&A.  They'll likely discuss the NT scan.  It's optional genetic testing that's done roughly between 12-14 weeks.  If you're due for a pap, expect that.  I had recently had mine, but they still did a pelvic exam just to make sure my cervix was closed.  Some doctors do an u/s.

For mine, urine test and pelvic exam.  They didn't do pap until the 2nd appointment.  Also a bunch of questions, blood work, and scheduled first mini ultrasound.

 Congrats, it's very exciting!
