First Time Pregnancy

I'm 21 years old and I just found out two days ago that I'm pregnant with my first child. After seven positive home pregnancy tests I am certain that I am pregnant. I have an appointment with my doctor this Wednesday to confirm that I am expecting. I am absolutely terrified. I have no idea what's going on with my body or with the baby. Can anyone who has more experience give me any advice?

Congratulations!  I would just start by taking your prenatal vitamins and try to go with more of a healthy diet for the well being of you and your baby. Definitely going to the doctors is the best thing you can do to follow up with your pregnancy.  They will check you down there and make sure your cervix is nice and close and check for any infection and make sure everything looks good.. Also they will be doing some lab work as well as a glucose test
