Ohh, we'll here it is in order.
1. Fill out patient info
2.When they call you in , you'll give them a urine sample
3.Talk to the doc
4.Get a pap smear
5.Depending on your doc, you may have blood work done there, or they may send you somewhre else (it may be on a diff day, but it will have to be done like 2 weeks, before your next appt.
6.The doc will either give you prenatal samples, or a prescription

and that is it. Hope I helped.

Ohh since ur 4 months, when they send you to get the normal bloodwork, you will also most likely get the maternal serum bloodwork done too. But that is most likely it.

Ohh it is way more than to. The first set o blood work, that you will get done is a lot. They draw into about 5 or 6 diff tubes. And the maternal serum will just be one. I would bring some crackers, b/c you may get light headed.

You get use to everything by the time you hae your baby you still might not like needles, but you will be able to deal with them if you have to get them. I was better off this time with the second baby.
