Scooting over this way! PR
Hi All!!!
I shared my news on GP earlier this week but now I figured I would officially introduce myself on the GP Mom board!
DH and I found out we were pregnant on Sunday while we were away on vacation. To say I was surprised is quite an understatement! We had been trying for 19 months and after 2 months of acupuncture I finally stopped spotting and had normal cycles.
My 1st appointment is July 24 but not with my doctor it is with someone to draw blood and discuss the details of pregnancy. I've never heard of this but that's the way my OBGYN office works. My next appointment is 8/4 for my 8 week appointment with the doctor.
One question, last night we went out for dinner and after dinner my stomach was really upset all night. I ended up waking up in the middle of the night to vomit. Could this just be because I ate something heavy and reacted to it? Or is this what I should expect with being pregnant now?

And to echo everyone else, each dr will have slightly their own way of doing things. My first appts. were to fill out medical history, talk about some basic stuff, go to the lab for bloodwork, and first u/s to date the pregnancy, but all of this was done at 8 weeks.
.
My OB had the same procedure where we met with a nurse educator for blood draws and to go over all my medical history and talk about important pregnancy details. I thought it was helpful because she told me what meds I could take and what to do if i had any problems.

Also don't label. The whole reason this board was created was so that pregnants and moms could talk freely without labels.
