Hi Everyone!
So I just got my BFP on an at-home pregnancy test. This is my first pregnancy, so I have no clue what to do from here. I guess the first thing I should do is call my primary care doctor and schedule my first prenatal visit.
I was wondering what to expect during the first prenatal visit. Do they do a sonogram (or is that done during a later visit)? Should the DH go with me, or is it just going to be a bunch of blood tests and a pelvic exam? I want him to be as involved as possible during the pregnancy, and I don't want him to miss any important appointments, but I don't want him to have to take the day off work just to sit in the waiting room while I get a pelvic exam. Did your partners go with you to your first visit?
Thanks!
