Is this weird?

Question

So I recently took two pregnancy tests a few days apart and got positives on both. (We're excited!) the first thing I thought to do was to get labs done with my doctors office... When we did that they confirmed that I am pregnant but said I don't schedule anything until I'm around 13-17 weeks??! Is that normal? That seems so far away. Thanks for the help ladies. Sending baby dust to you all!

Answer

17 weeks is not normal. My doctor saw me at 8 weeks and I got an ultrasound

Answer

When I got pregnant with my first daughter they wouldn't schedule my appointment before 15wks not sure why but this time I went to a different doctor and they seen me at 8wks for the first time so I think it depends on the clinic maybe try finding a different doctor.

Answer

My doctor sees you between 8-10 weeks. I never heard of anything Later than that

Answer

My dr was 8-10 weeks

Answer

That's weird. I saw mine at 8 weeks

Answer

Normal is between 8 to 12 weeks. I had my first prenatal at 6 weeks after I got confirmation that's when they scheduled it. Had my first ultrasound at 8 weeks. 17 weeks is crazy. I'm 16 weeks now and have had 3 prenatal appointments (6 weeks, 12 weeks and 16 weeks) and one ultrasound already and I'm low risk with no complications so far.

Answer

My doctor doesn't schedule the first appointment until you're at least 8-10 weeks. I have never heard of a place making you wait that long! Maybe try finding another doctor's office? I would want to go in before then. Especially with my first one! I didn't even want to wait until 8 weeks!

Answer

I had my first appointment at 8+6... But my doctor office schedules first appointments between 8 and 12 weeks. The first appointment is mainly just to check for placement in the uterus. We also found out we are expecting twins! Every doctor is different! I am now 11+3 and have yet to get any blood work done!

Answer

Depends where you live. This is normal in some places.

Answer

Usually it's anywhere from 8-12 weeks.... I saw mine at 12 weeks and had two appts in one because I never went at 8!
