First time mama

Hi everyone,
Did a test yesterday and I got a positive yay. I've worked out dates etc.. I am due on the 19th March so approx 3 weeks and 5 days
When should I ring the doctors etc? I know they don't really see you till 12 weeks for the scan? So do I need to ring right away?
Anything else I should be doing?
Love x

I took a home test last week and I called the doctor and I have an appointment the end of July. I believe they're going to take blood work and a possible ultrasound to hear the heartbeat. They told me to take a prenatal pill right away in case I had yet to start.

I'm due on the 6th of march and found out around the exact time as you did. I got bloods taken around 4 weeks and got a midwife the next week. Also got a scan when I was 5 weeks 3 days. I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow :) good luck hun

Hi there! I went to the doctor and got a blood test. On confirmation through bloodworm she's asked me to come back in 3 weeks time for a dating scan (even though I know exactly because of fertility drugs) and to check for a heartbeat. I'm a week ahead of you
