Soo Jan 22nd I went in for my annual OB exam and found out I was about 4 weeks pregnant. Waiting for February 5th for my 6 week pregnancy confirmation! This will be my first. And I’m so nervous/excited! Any tips on what to expect during this next appointment?

It all depends on your OB. They may want to do a transvaginal ultrasound, where the insert the probe, as this is really the only way to see anything that early. It seems really scary and it is a little uncomfortable, but it’s not bad at all.

Yes, my doctor told me that they’re going to have me insert it myself so I’m as comfortable as possible, and then the doctor will adjust the position as needed. She also told me to drink a full bottle of water prior to my appointment!

For most women nausea tired all the time and going to the bathroom every 15 minutes ( well that’s me). I’m currently 7 weeks and 5 days and it’s been crazy. Nausea every morning food cravings on and off.

What should I expect to do at my high risk doctor for the first time? Will I be doing an Anatomy scan or like a regular ultrasound ? It’s in a few days and I’m 20 weeks in two. 🥺💖

Nothing scary at all… you will get a pap-smear and they will do blood work.
