What Can I Expect? Posted: 08-29-06 23:09pm


Hey everyone, i have my first prenatal appointment thursday. I know for a fact i'm pregnant (today would be the last day of my period, and i've taken so many .H.P.T that I should have bought stock in the companies- and they all turned out positive). So, my question is what can I expect from my first appointment? What kind of things should I ask and what will I be asked? Thanks for any help!

Well, when you go to your first doctors appt they will get a history from you such as if you have been pregnant before, drug usage, family history of illness, etc. They will also do a vaginal exam and maybe an ultra sound if they arent quite sure how far along you are. Good luck and congrats!! Jeannine
