Megan • First 👶 Due February 2017!
So my husband is active duty and I'll be seen on a military instillation...today I finally got a referral for the OBGYN and my first appointment isn't until the 11th of July and my first ultrasound isn't until the 14th of July which are both pretty much a month away and I'll be almost ten weeks by then :/ I am just frustrated that I can't be seen earlier just even to do blood work to test my hcg levels....This is my first pregnancy and all this waiting is going to stress and worry me out even more than I already am. I just want to know my baby is healthy and growing......why is that so much to ask for :( Plus all these hormones just make me want to cry and eat pizza hahaha

This is normal...most places won't see you till you're 8-12 weeks. My midwives won't see me till I'm 11 weeks on July 22.

How do you guys even know things are going the way they are supposed to be? I feel like I need to be testing every few days just to make sure :(

you can get dollar store tests and take one every so often to reassure you.

My husband is active duty as well. This is my 3rd so I'm not as worried as before. It's hard not to worry when you have to wait that long though. It sucks but just try to relax and take care of your body. That's the best thing you can do right now. I won't have an appointment until I'm 10 weeks either and they don't do an ultrasound until 20 weeks here. Waiting totally sucks 😭

My doctor was so booked up I want going to get an ultrasound until July 18 but an appt opened up for next week... But I'm not seeing my OB until July 25. I'm 6 weeks and 4 days now, so I'm not seeing the doc until I'm 12 weeks.
