for me, my first appt was with my midwife. i had a similar experience as Lanny_Licorice. discussed everything from height, weight, family history, my feelings, my diet etc. had my blood pressure taken, urine tested, heartbeat listened to and made appts for ultrasounds and blood tests and that was it. harmless and helpful, dw! :)

What they did for me was, checked my height, weight, blood pressure. Took a pee test to check for UTI's etc. They asked tons of questions about family history and such. Had a Pelvic Exam done and listened to the heartbeat. They'll also prescribe you Prenatal Pills If your not on It already.
