First of all, deep breaths. Remain calm. You will need to see your general practitioner first if you have one. If not then a trip to a Gynecologist or Planned Parenthood will give you a general health check and a test to see how far along you are. Start taking a prenatal vitamin with folic acid to help protect against birth defects. You will need to see a gynecologist roughly every 2-3 weeks for most of the pregnancy and to get tests to check on your baby's growth and health. Good luck and congrats!

You will need to see an obstetrician or mid-wife (your preference). The first visit they take all your health history. This website is pretty helpful!! http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/pregnancy/prenatalhealth/9344.html Congratulations!!!

Well first off, congrats on your pregnancy. I am sure each first prenatal visit varies to some extent, but what I experienced at my first OBGYN appointment about 8 weeks ago is them taking a complete health history, both personal and family. They also did a pap if you have not had one recently as well as a urine test and blood tests. I hope this helps.
