First prenatal visit

I got my BFP on Thanksgiving. I have my first doctor's appointment tomorrow.

What can I expect? Will my DH be able to go in with me?

Re: First prenatal visit

so exciting! how many weeks will you be? i would def take your husband with you.. if the doctor does a sono, you'll want him there the first time you see your baby
if you didn't have a pre ttc appt, the dr will review what you should avoid/do (prenatals etc) and they will prob do a sonogram, which will be internal at this point.
enjoy it!!!!

Re: First prenatal visit

Thank you so much! I am not sure how far along I am. I had my last period on October 15 but didn't ovulate until around November 10 (im not sure what date. I got a positive ok on nov 8).

My husband was planning on leaving work early to come. I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't be a waste. Do all doctors do the sonogram in their office or will I have to go somewhere else to have it done on another day?

I never had a pre ttc appointment. We decided quickly to start trying ttc. Is there anything I need to ask when I go? I'm excited and nervous!

1st visit is usually blood work with beta numbers being checked.

7-8 weeks: 1st sono to check heartbeat.
