I Got a Bfp Today!!!
Posted: 02-18-07 21:45pm

Well.... After 3 years of trying I got my bfp today, as a matter of fact. I took 2 tests, and both were positive. :d
right now I am in still in disbelief/shock. It has taken so long, and i'm trying not to get too excited, b/c I know it is still very early and a lot can happen.

I guess my question is..... What do I do now? Just wait? I know a doctor won't see you until you're about 10 to 12 weeks. But.... Considering all of the problems I have had getting pregnant.... Shouldn't I call my doctor to do some blood work or something?

Thanks

First of all, congrats!

Contact your doctor as soon as possible and let them know. They'll refer you to an obgyn, and they'll take it from there.

Congrats!!! That is so great! If you call them and tell them you would like to come in and have your hormone levels checked they shouldn't have any problem with that. Yeah, most offices make you wait until at least 8 weeks along.
Good luck with everything!!!!

Congrats! You should stay put for a few weeks and then see a doctor. You'll probably have a better chance of one seeing you right away. If you want to see one right away though, i'm pretty sure you can like someone here already said. Try to contact your hospital's ob/gyn by phone and ask any questions you may have. Good luck with everything!

Depending on your insurance, you will need to see your primary doc who will refer you to an ob/gyn. Usually an ob won't answer any questions you have until you are a patient. In the meantime take prenatals if you are not already.

I'm happy for you! Congrats

Congrats, that's awesome!


I know bfp means "big fat positive" but I always read it as "big doing it positive". I don't know why...
