When did you have your first apt?

Laura • 👼

I’m 44 and just found out we’re expecting. 3 weeks 6 days. I called my primary to discuss an upcoming procedure that would need to be postponed and when we were discussing the pregnancy she mentioned that I need to schedule my OB apt now but that I won’t be seen until at least 12 weeks. Is that true? I would have thought it would be sooner, like 6-8 weeks.
