Hello Everyone!
Question! So got my BFP last Friday, 10 DPO woo-hoo!
I finally saw my primary care today (14 dpo) was so excited, but it was kind of disappointing because all they did was pee test. It confirmed I was pregnant, but then they said for anything else needed OBGYN (which is what I wanted to do in the first place, but insurance said I had to start here )
So just made a call to OBGYN and it was kind of anti-climatic. They said my first appt wont be until 8-10 weeks (over one month from now) and that they don't do blood work. They consider the pee test confirmation.
For the record, I'm in the Pacific Northwest in USA. It's one of the best OBGYNs in the area (I think, just moved here so I don't know, just going off reviews).
I guess now I am worried that I am just going to be peeing on sticks for the next two months! I was hoping that blood work would help me relax, but now I have no idea what's going on... I feel pregnant (so hungry all the time! Gaining weight really quickly ) But I just wanted to be sure it's not ectopic or some other problem.
But has anyone else had this experience? Did it work out okay?
This is my first pregnancy, if that explains anything!
Thanks!
