First appointment?

megggles · February 2015

How far along will you be at your first appt?

I just scheduled mine (EDD 10/12) and it will be at 6 weeks. This is my first pregnancy. Does that seem early?

SweetnSassy23 · February 2015

I will be 7 weeks at my first appointment. Usually my practice sees patients between 8-10 weeks. That's great they could get you in sooner.

on_the_move · February 2015

I'll be a little over 7 weeks. My OBGYN would see me as soon as 6 weeks, but I'm going to be out of town that week. Every practice I've been to (3 so far) has done it a little different.

crs89 · February 2015

My doctor's office waits until 8-9 weeks for first prenatal appointments. Does your first appointment include an u/s? If yes, just know that it may be too early to see/hear the heartbeat.

Sweet Sadie Mae · February 2015

I'll be 9 weeks

razzlemydazzle · February 2015

My doctor wants to see me at 8weeks. I was hoping to see her sooner so I could tell me parents but I will try to be patient

elizabethmarie11 · February 2015

I just scheduled my first appointment and its going to be March 16 and I'll be 10 weeks. I'm so anxious and the next 6 weeks are going to go by so slow!!!

EricaOO · February 2015

Just scheduled mine and I'll be 8 weeks. My doctor likes to do the first appointment between 8 and 10. Of course I wanted the earliest appt possible

Ashjed514 · February 2015

I just scheduled mine and I'll be 8 weeks. My first I was seen earlier than I will be for this one.

DeidreHarr · February 2015

My EDD is 10/3, I go to my first appt 3/3... So I'll be over 9wks. My Dr. wants to schedule appts between 8 to10 weeks.

Knottie84173160 · February 2015

I'll be a little over 8 weeks at mine, they'll do an u/s to determine due date at mine. So I'm kind of glad to be seen later so we can actually see a little babe in the uterus.

andreajaimie · February 2015

2 weeks from tomorrow and I will be 8 weeks! So excited and anxious!

megggles · February 2015

I thought 6 weeks sounded a little early. I told them the date of my last period and that week was the week they offered. They even have me going to a "first time parents" class the week before my appointment. It all seems a bit like jumping the gun! First timer though, so don't know what is to be expected. I was hoping for an u/s... Think they'll get me in for one sometime between my first appt at 6 wks and my next, which I assume would be at 12?

nikkij9 · February 2015

I had a fertility treatment so I'm getting sooner than normal. I'll be just about 7 weeks so we are hoping to see heartbeat (s).

Jessalicious01 · February 2015

I don't have an appt for the intake yet, last time I was 10 weeks for that. But I will be going for an ultrasound the week after valentines day after I'm 6 weeks. I need to have one early since I've had an ectopic.

lwestphal9 · February 2015

I have my first ultrasound at 6 weeks 5 days. I've had 3 miscarriages and tried clomid so I'm assuming thats why they scheduled me early. They did warn me that sometimes you don't hear a heartbeat that early so don't freak out!

vfosmire · February 2015

Mine is march 16th I will be 10 weeks

tdenen · February 2015

Mine is having me come in at 6 weeks as well, but that's more of a gathering of information, probably a pregnancy test, informal kind of thing. My first prenatal is at 10 weeks... That wait might kill me.

saxdougall · February 2015

mMine is tomorrow I will be 4 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I have no idea what the policy is at the clinic I just went ahead and made my appointment online.

Kstu728 · February 2015

I'll be around 10 weeks!

futuremrs&PA · February 2015

You can see heartbeat on am ultrasound at 5 wks 5 days

futuremrs&PA · February 2015

Oh, and my apt is this Monday, I'll be 6 1/2 weeks

gkellie · February 2015

I'll be 8 weeks for my first appointment which is with a nurse and 12 weeks for my appointment with the doctor.

Nukke · February 2015

I haven't even called to get a primary caregiver yet. I only found out on Sunday. So I have no idea when my first appointment will be. I *think* my first appointment with my first was around 6 weeks, just to meet with the midwives and tour the facilities, ask questions, etc. Then there was another at 10 weeks. This time around I have no idea what to expect.

Dryad72 · February 2015

5w4d. Which is super early. But I have had several miscarriages and my kids were preterm, so we need to see what is going on.

Sar29est · February 2015

I am also due 10/12

at my first appointment I will 9 weeks exactly

mrsdawnjoy · February 2015

Mine is 3/10, and I'll be 10 weeks. I can't believe I have to wait that long!

mrsdawnjoy · February 2015

Mine is 3/10, and I'll be 10 weeks. I can't believe I have to wait that long!

anorthro · February 2015

I'm due 10/5. First appointment is on 2/18 and I'll be 7 weeks and 2 days.

Octbowbaby · February 2015

EDD of 10/12 also. First appointment will be around 10 weeks. Wish she would see me sooner! 2nd pregnancy, mc in August.

KRomo16 · February 2015

First appointment will be March 3rd. I will be 9w3d. I don't know what to expect. Will I have an ultrasound? Will I see a baby yet? Can I bring my husband? This is my first pregnancy so have no idea.

lemerwin · February 2015

Mine is March 4. I'll be 8 weeks and 1 day. My doc does the first appointment b/w 8-10 weeks, so I got in as quickly as I could. They said to bring my husband. It's hard to wait... Sometimes it doesn't even feel real...

abarnes1187 · February 2015

My first appointment is 2/20. I will be 8 weeks. My EDD is 10/2. I already had a u/s because of a scare. I am wondering too if my husband should come

jegoffin · February 2015

I'm actually hoping to put off my 1st appointment until April. Our insurance rolls over then and this is my 3rd pregnancy. I'm fairly confident that I know what's going on and what to expect.

bspletzer · February 2015

My first appt. Is on the 17th dd is 10/3 so I will be a little over 7 weeks also have first ultrasound that day!

sthiggins · February 2015

I called and scheduled my first appointment as soon as I found out I was pregnant on Thursday and they will be seeing me today. I am only 5 weeks and 1 day and have no history of miscarriage.

kita_19 · February 2015

Scheduled my first appointment as soon as I found out. I will be 9 weeks when I go in. Almost 3 weeks to go, and I am so nervous!

danixbanani24 · February 2015

I went in last night at 5w4d. Really informal. My OB did an U/S but we just saw the sack and yolk. She told me to come back in two weeks with my husband to see the heartbeat. Also my blood pressure was high so she wants me to monitor it everyday

megggles · February 2015

Thanks for sharing!!

ceg878 · February 2015

I went in this morning at 6 weeks and 2 days for an ultrasound. We had to do a transvaginal ultrasound because the abdominal only picked up the gestational sac, but we were able to see a heartbeat! Not going to lie, I totally cried. Our first official appointment with my OBGYN isn't until mid-March but I think they wanted me to come in sooner for the ultrasound because I had been experiencing some spotting and light cramping.

mamasnowwhite · February 2015

Had my first appt this morning. Thought I was 6 weeks but doc said I'm only 5, booo. They did a Pap smear and an ultrasound and I could see the yolk sac

scheduled my real 1st preggo appt for Mar 3 (this one was just to confirm, yes I'm knocked up lol). They said they'll do more, collect blood etc at the next one, I'll be about 8 weeks then.
