First ultra sound

Katherine
I'm military, and I'm going for my confirmation appointment today. I called the OB clinic because I know they fill up quick, and I wanted to know when I could start making appointments there for ultra sounds and what not. They told me they don't do anything before 9 weeks! Is that normal?? 9 weeks just seems like so long. I just want to make sure my little Guppie is settling in. Uuuugh, I'm freaking out!
