  I just found out too! I'm around 4 and half weeks. If you have missed your period and the tests came out positive you are good! I asked around to my friends they helped me find an ob. They won't even see you until you are 8 weeks or more probably!

  I am nervous for the ob app. I always get high blood pressure whenever I have to go!

  We had recently moved so I didn't have an ob up here. I drove the hour to my hometown, confirmed pregnancy with my family doc, and got a referral to a practice near my new home. It happened to be affiliated with the same hospital chain as my family doc, was covered by insurance, and I have several friends that recommended the ob practice I am using now. Good luck!

  Congrats on your positive pregnancy test! I think its important for you to make an appointment with a doctors office to confirm the pregnancy via a blood test.

   

  Hope it all works out !!! & WELCOME to the 1st Trimester!

  Congrats! I also found out at 5 weeks too. I first took a test, went to my doctor to confirm it because I was still in shock. I instantly knew what hospital I wanted to deliver because we have one less than a mile from our house. I called my insurance company to see what doctors in my area deliver at the hospital and in my network. Had a few to choose from and did some research and I have my first appt this friday ill be almost 8 weeks. They said they wont be checking the heart beat bc its still too early but mainly tests to check up on me and the baby. Hope this helps good luck in your journey
