it'll just be for monitoring your health adn pregnancy - blood estst to test for all sorts, urine tests. Then later scans etc.

You will be told about the care you are going to recieve and how it works in your area, scans, check-ups and and special care that may be needed if it applies to you etc! x

They also scheduled a separate appt for me, aside from all of the paperwork and health stuff, with a counselor. She talked to me about how I felt about the pregnancy, how my home life was, and basically just made sure that I was doing ok mentally about the pregnancy. It actually was nice that someone was thinking about me, and how I was doing. And, in California, they use money from taxes from tobacco products to put together packets that have TONS of info about raising babies, from prenatal, to 5 years. With DVDs, books, and helpful phone numbers.

Good luck with what they have you do. And congrats!!
