You will want to make an appointment right
away to verify you are pregnant, and from
that point your doctor will determine when
they will see you again.

You need to go now. First of all they
will see how far you really are. *your
first appt.~ they review your needs during
pregnancy and help you make a personal
plan to make sure you and the baby are
healthy.
*your second appt.~ this is the first
time you see the medical provider you have
a general exam and a pelvic exam.
Beginning with this visit you start giving
a urine sample everytime you go in,
measure your weight, blood pressure, and
growth of your baby
*follow up appts.~ you are seen every four
weeks until 28 weeks. You will then have
a diabetes test. Starting with that 28
weeks you will be seen every 2 weeks until
36 weeks then every week to check for
signs of labor.
So it is very important that you keep
appt. And go as soon as poss. Keep us
posted and let us know when your first
visit is!!
