PREGNANCY 18-34 COMMUNITY
First OB appointment!!

First OB appointment!!

So I finally get to see my doctor tomarrow. Yeah I am so excited!! I will be 11.1 weeks!! I had to wait 7 weeks just to get in and see the same doctor that seen me for my last pregnancy. So I am really hoping to get to hear the heart beat. My question is since I just had a baby 5 months ago, got pregnant when he was just over 2 months and never got the chance to lose the "belly" will I be able to hear the heart beat? I have always been able to hear it by 10 weeks, but I have always been slim befor having waited 3-4 years between babies. Now I just have fat, ugh!!
I really hope I can!! I feel like I have been waiting for this appointment FOREVER!!

Congrats, and yes that is a long time to wait for an appt.  Yes, you should be able to hear a heartbeat, my best friend is over 250lbs and was able to hear heart beat at 10weeks with doppler.

I have my first ob appt 2mrw also, but im not so happy about it bcuz its only pretty much a physcial, health history, and the standard lab work they do, so boring. I did have an u/s at 5w3d and i have another one feb 3. I am only 7weeks today, so if i was 10w i would be excited bcuz they would do the doppler lol.

Good luck on appt today, let us no how it goes:)

I just got back from my appointment and YES I got to her the heartbeat!!!! It was high in the 160's but everything looked good:) My doctor was excited to see me again so soon, lol. And she noticed I chopped all my hair off, I love it when people acually take notice to things like that:) She also scheduled an ultra sound for next tuesday!! I dont usually get those at my clinic, only at around 20 weeks. She said because my pregnancys are only a few months apart she wanted to be sure about the dates. I cant wait for tuesday!!!!
Thanks Latrice14 and Babypooh:)
And yes Babypooh WOW is right, lol. I dont know about brave, im really kinda scared right now.............
