After a positive test when do I call the doc?

Question

This might be a dumb question but when do I call the doctor after getting a positive test?
Update
I scheduled an appointment for November!!!

Answer

I would see what's in network with your insurance and call right away! Appointments fill up right away.

Answer

If you’re planning to pay out of pocket you can call around and get pricing to find the doctor that both meets your needs and your budget. But if you’re planning on getting insured, they require a urine or blood test to confirm pregnancy prior to approval, you can go to your local health department for this. If you’re already insured, call around and find out who accepts that insurance and when they typically see patients. Most doctors range from 8-12 weeks of pregnancy for the first visit. You can calculate how far along you are based on your last period. Hope this helps. Good luck!!

Answer

I’m so excited to Monday to get here I got a positive test yesterday

Answer

right away. my OB has to have a positive result with a GP before seeing you. most offices are booked for a while so it still might be a couple weeks before you're seen

Answer

I called my doctor the next day their offices were open (I got my positive over a weekend). They scheduled my appointment for a couple of months later, but I was glad I called so they knew that I was pregnant if anything bad started happening.

Answer

Call right away, some places fill up fast for appointments.

Answer

I called after taking a test and getting positive..The OB offices fill up fast and you should schedule even if they don’t see you right away..Most offices won’t see you until at least 8-10wks

Answer

After the first positive result, I took another test a week later then made an appt with the Ob/Gyn. They scheduled it for 2 weeks later which was great because I was 8 weeks when I went in and was even able to hear the heartbeat 💗
