First Doctors Appointment

What do they normally do on your first trip to the doctors? I'm running a little late but I'm 11+4 weeks.

I pretty much had the same as @PBaby1:

paperwork, urine sample, blood work, pap smear, and ultrasound.. she also kind of did a pelvic exam.. kind of felt around in there to make sure things were okay in that aspect too.. she thinks I have a short/small cervix, so I'm seeing a specialist about that JUST IN CASE.. but that kind of falls in line with the pap smear I guess.

I was 9w6d (one day shy of 10 weeks).. so yeah, you're not that far behind!
good luck!! (((:

At my first appointment they did health history, blood work, urine sample, pap smear and a ultrasound to confirm how far along I was. I was 10 weeks at my first appointment. Your not to far along, alot of doctors choose to wait till between 10-12 weeks
