congratulations of this pregancy!!!!!





to answer the op: my ob generally sees people (well you see a nurse practitioner) for education (don't eat lots of fish, etc.), bloodwork, a pap if you aren't current and a breast exam at 8 weeks.

I went at 4 weeks for an annual, not knowing I was pregnant. 6 weeks for an US because I was having bleeding and was worried that the pregnancy wasn't in the uterus. I've been like 3 times since and go in again next week --- just a wait and see kinda case I guess. I've been seeing the nurse practitioner, next week we'll see the new doc I'm thinking of switching to. My OB from my first is super hard to get apts with because she's at another practice one day a week.

i can't find a midwife at all, and there are too many OBs to choose from, and i haven't heard anything great about any of them yet *sigh*

I was having some pain. So my hus insisted that we go at about 6weeks. I have to go to a OB cuz there are no MW here and it is the law to have the baby in the hospitial? If this birth is like my other two we might have a accidental home birth. I go soooooo fast! Anyway, Back to the early visit! Everything is great! We saw the baby on u/s and even the heart beat. My doc than had to go and deliver a baby so the visit was cut short. I have another appt for the exam. Eew! On tues.

Had an u/s at 5 4/7 days and again at 5 5/7 days. I had been having spotting so they did hcg levels and the u/s. that night I had a big gush of blood and thought I had a miscarriage. Had an u/s the next day and everything looked ok. I go on the 17th for another u/s and a visit with the midwife. I will be 7 weeks 6 days.
