Joining you from the TTC boards
I've had four positive pregnancy tests in the past two days. I feel like my eyes are playing tricks on me. I scheduled my first obgyn appointment at Dr. Hanauer's office.
What should I expect at my first appointment? Just bloodwork? Will they do an ultrasound?

Congrats! LOVE Dr. H! They may do a sono depending on how far along you are at your first appointment. They will definitely make you PIAC (pee in a cup), they will take blood, and you may also get a pap.

Re: Joining you from the TTC boards
Congratulations! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months.    
I'm not a patient there, but my first appointment was at about 6 weeks. I basically had an annual exam, asked the doctor a bunch of questions, and was sent for bloodwork. I had a sono at my next appointment. Most doctors won't give you a sono until you're at least 8 weeks.

I'm really surprised I got here so fast as well. It was my last cycle prior to our first cycle of TTC, if that makes any sense. I guess we got lucky.

Do you know how far along you have to be to get a sono?
I think I will be 6 weeks from last menstrual cycle or 4 weeks from approximate ovulation.

Hanauer doesn't do a sono until you are at least 8 weeks (unless there are extenuating circumstances). At my first appt with the nurse practitioner I was 5 weeks and they had me pee in a cup to check for proteins, bacteria, etc., took about 7 vials of blood and she talked to me about family history. I didn't meet with Dr. Hanauer until my next appt. at 8 weeks where she did the internal sono.
Congrats!!
