We got our first BFP yesterday with a HPT. I was 4 days late (see conception thread) and BFP came up within 30 seconds.
I have just gotten back from my doctor and feel crappy now.
Firstly he said that because i had my blood work done in July (rubella etc) it would not be necessary for another BT and that the HPT was very dark so was happy with that so no other HPT done in the surgery.
I've pretty much left my doctor this morning with a referral and that is all.
He checked my blood pressure, lung sounds and that was all. Asked my LMP but didn't tell me an expected DD or anything. I don't know if he just assumed I would have already worked that out or what.
He said i'd see my OBG around end of January and the OBG will let me know if he wants another BT done. I feel like i've just been left alone from now till my OBG appointment to fend for myself in completely unchartered waters!!
This is my first PG and I thought I would have gotten a little more guidance and reassurance than that. What did everyone else get or experience during their first Doctor appointment for confirmation of PG.
I asked if I should just have a BT to confirm the pregnancy before we told people but he said not necessary. I don't know if he said that because he knows i hate BT's or what. He said does not advise telling anyone till around 10 weeks but he didn't even confirm when that would be. I'm assuming just off the DD calculator that I'm due end of August so i'd only be 4 weeks 3 days or something like that.
