Help & Advice Greatly Appreciated
Posted: 03-30-06 10:52am

I recently did a pregnancy test and it was positive plus i'm 9 weeks late for my period so good news. However went to the docs and she wasnt helpful at all. Just said to come back in 4 weeks to make sure I havent slipped through the system. She didnt do any tests, blood pressure, test to confirm pregnancy or anything. Is this normal?

That is not normal..Especially if you dont have pre-natal vitamin
+ she didn't talk to you at all? Is this your pcp?

Did you go to the doctors to set up an appt. And did she give you a date to go back and get started with everything you need to know??!! Or was the reason you went to the doc because you were letting them know you got pregnant because you had previously told them you were ttc?

Anyways it sounds fishy. They should not have sent you away and told you to call another time?

I did make an appointment with her. Friends of mine have told me to take folic acid so I have been each day. The problem I have is I live in a small town so the other doctors wont take me cause i'm already registered with her. We wernt ttc, it was a surprise and I suppose I just wanted her to confirm it for me or tell me abit of what to expect. Anyway will just have to go back and try again I suppose. Thanks for the help at least I know i'm not being over sensitive.
