how long did you have to wait to see a doctor after getting a positive on an at home pregnancy test? I called my doctor today and I don't go to see him for a blood test and everything until the 24th. it's driving me crazy that i won't know for sure until the 24th! is it normal to wait that long?

I went in and confirmed by urine test the same day (4 weeks) in the dr's office and then was scheduled for my actual appointment (bloodwork, initial exam, initial ultrasound) when I was 8 weeks.

I called my PCM the day after I got the + at home.. went in that next afternoon and had it confirmed. It took around 2 weeks to get Tricare and my PCM to cooperate with each other (my PCM's clinic personnel kinda suck) and to get my referral/appointment to see my OB/GYN...

I always seen the OB for my first appt at about 12 weeks.

went in asap for confirmation of preggers and then set up appointment, usually about 8 weeks along is when you are seen.

We went right in to confirm it.

I called as soon as I got a positive, they didn't confirm it until my 12 week appointment...

I confirmed the day after I got my + at home and then waited 2 weeks for my referral. Called to make an appt. They normally like to see you around 9 weeks or so providing you dont have a history of problems. So it is normal to wait a bit

With Breanna I got my positive and 2 days later had the pg confirmed. My first real appt. where I had a pap and everything was the following week.

With Johnny I got my positive and 4 days later got the pg confirmed. The following week I had my first real appt.

With this one I got my positve and got the pg confirmed 2 days later. But my first real appt. wasn't til 4 weeks later.
