Confirmation Of Pregnancy


 

WELCOME TO PREGNANCY!

Welcome to pregnancy! Your body is undergoing many changes, especially at the start. Fatigue, nausea, backaches and mood swings are all very common at this stage. These lessen or go away as your pregnancy progresses. Some slight vaginal spotting is usually normal at this stage. However, any heavy bleeding or cramping signals the need for further evaluation, so please contact your physician.

Ideally, your first visit should be between 6-8 weeks. At this initial pregnancy visit, we perform an ultrasound to make sure the pregnancy is normal and then you will see your doctor. Afterwards, every 2 - 4 weeks you will be scheduled for a visit.
