I'm 23 yrs old, engaged for a year now. I
was pregnant a year ago and misscarried.
I started getting symptoms about 2 weeks
ago. I got a home pregnancy test and came
out positive on thursday. I'm happy,
nervous, but don't want to get too excited
yet. I don't want to be heartbroken as I
was a year ago.
Ok well my last cycle was dec. 8th 2004.
I didn't get it this month so I am aprox
4-6 weeks, i'm guessing. Is it too early
to see my ob-gyn?

I would go see your ob, they can give you
a blood test, and then youll be able to
start prenatal care and regular doctors
appointments. Congratulations, and good
luck!!!

No its not to early.. I went through this
similar situation except I have had 3
spontanious mis. Some doctors want to
monitor you closely from the beginning
because not to scare you but im sure you
all ready know the first 12-13 weeks are
the most critical. Good luck hun and we
are all here if you need to talk

Well I called my dr office and they said I
have to be atleast 6 weeks in order for my
1st appt. They counted from the day of my
last cycle. So next week is my appt.

I'm getting really anxious to know how far
along I really am. I can't wait! And
it's only the beginning! I still don't
want to get too excited yet, not until we
reach 2nd trimester. We haven't even told
any of our friends yet! My mom knows, and
a few co-workers. I just can't wait!
