Planned Parenthood?

jewel02 · Dec 27th, 2007, 19:02 PM

Hello ladies, I was wondering if anyone could answer a question for me. I would call PP myself, but I waited to long and they're closed now. Does anyone know if PP does the whole pg of care (visits, u/s, etc) or are they just an option until you find your own OB? I'm just now looking for options and have wondered about them before. Thanks for any help!

I believe they just get you started... pregnancy test ... ultrasound.. pap smear... but will refer you from there. Hope that helps.

Yes, it does, thank you!

I feel a bit lost as I have no idea who to go to when I have to. Hoping PP is nice to me. lol

Good luck when you go!! I've had friends throughout the years use the services they provide and I've never heard anything negative =)

I am using a midwife who only does a US at 24 weeks, I have been to PP twice. They do not offer prenatal care, only confirmaiton of pregnancy and such. You can go for a dating US, but that is all it is, they don't tell you anything else.
