Doctors Appointment Questions
Posted: 10-06-07 06:24am

OK...so this may seem to be a silly question but I am going to the doctor on the 16th. My dad and fiance' are going with me and I just need some advice on what questions I should ask and so on and so forth...I have a pretty good idea but I'd like some suggestions...I'm SO excited!!!...thanks so much!

Very

Well at my first appointment I asked:

When the risk of misscarrige decreases

If there was anything he could give me for nausea

What week could we know the sex

What over the counter medicine could I take

Did I need to take folic acid

When the first ultrasound would be

I asked alot of things though, I can't remember everything. It's strange I was so excited to be there I forgot half the questions I had been dying to ask him. You might wanna make a list and take it with you. I think that's what I'm gonna do this time. Congrats on the pregnancy! Very
Happy

It might be a good idea to get some books from the library about pregnancy. I loved reading about my baby! Smile

Thank you so much! And yes this is my first appointment. We are overjoyed! I've been looking up stuff like crazy! But I find myself wanting to look at baby clothes and maternity clothes more often than I do research...I really need to get focused on my body and on learning how it's going to change and about the baby and such...which I plan to do after I post this! Haha. Thank you girls! You've been so supportive. I really apprieciate it. You don't even know.

What site? I'm always looking for good pregnancy sites.

You're like me, I can't wait to show. My boyfriend keeps saying since I look the same it won't seem to real to him until I show. Even though we have the ultrasound pictures, and I feel TOTALLY diffrent. Stupid boy lol

You can ask for your pregnancy how far along you are able to excercise for.
what are positives and negatives to look for in your pregnancy.
what are signs of worry or concern.
what you can do for morning sickness.
prevention of strechmarks.
what is a healthy weight gain and an over gain.
How many ultrasounds you will have.
If you will have the same doctor through out.
etc.

It's really not as bad as you think, yeah it hurts i'm not going to lie to you. i had the plan of going drug free but thanks to my complications i had pamergen and then because i was hyper sensitive to the pain relief it actually did the oposite and made the pain worse so in a way i went pain relieft free because it didn't work!
