I found out last week that I'm pregnant. I immediately called my regular OB/GYN because I had my yearly exam scheduled for this week, but obviously the positive pregnancy test changed things. So the person I spoke with told me they would cancel my yearly and schedule my first prenatal visit. She asked about my last period and determined I was 4.5 weeks. She then scheduled my appointment for Dec. 27th since they don't see anyone before 8 weeks.

I've read that this is fairly normal, but I keep seeing other people post about how they've been to the doctor already to do blood tests and such. I just hate having to wait soooo long (another 3 weeks) before I know anything. I just wanna know that my little nugget is really in there and is doing fine. That's all.

This is my first pregnancy, so I'm kinda clueless!
