got my BFP today
I have a question for u experienced preggo's
i made a doc appt for may 19th with a new doc.. it was for a check up and discuss infertility... well, turns out this month was ours (FINALLY)
do i call them to change the type of check up and let them know or just go and tell them then? AF was on March 28th and cycles are 28days... so i should be 7 weeks at the time of my appt...
what are the normal milestone visits during pregnance?

Re: got my BFP today
I think May 19th is fine to see the doc. You may not have a sono that day- since some docs wait until 8 weeks so that they can see [usually] a HB. I would call the doc's office to tell them that you got your BFP just in case appts like that require a longer block of time with the doctor. Congratulations!! Welcome to the board!! 
Looks like you are due January 1, 2009!!  How exciting!! Due Date
ETA: Usually, you go for your first appt after BFP at 8 weeks. It may be sooner if you have spotting or [definitely] if you are an IF patient. They will take bloodwork at the first appt to confirm that the pregnancy is progressing, you usually get a sono at an 8 week appt as well. If you do an ultrascreen, you will get another sono at about 12 weeks. Level II sono is at about 20 weeks. If your pregnancy is progressing normally from the beginning... you will typically see your doc once a month [other than sonos] until your last month. HTH!

Re: got my BFP today
yeah, all sites are giving me around that date... i cant even get an 08 or 09 mommy shirt... it is too close to new years who knows what yr s/he will be born in...
funniest part is this was the first yr with DH's schedule that we would have been able to make it back home to NY for the holidays... but i guess those plans have been changed for us
i am just so excited it finally happened!!
thanks!

Congrats! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!
I'd call the office. If you're not already taking prenatals, you may want to talk to your doctor about starting them.

Re: got my BFP today
Congratulations!!!!!! Wishing you a wonderful, healthy, and happy Nine!!
I would call the Dr. and tell them you got a BFP. They will want to run blood and do a urinanalysis. Probably still early for sono but let them know!
Congrats again!!!
