what should i do?

Since I found out I'm pregnant my Dr hasn't really done anything. They didn't  give me prenatal so I got my own and they haven't given my my check ups or anything. I found out  on 5/19 and they gave me an appointment for 6/26/14. I see everyone else talking about there 6week check up and stuff but I haven't ha any o that. Is that Norma or should I do something?

normally they won't prescribe you your prenatals. you can buy them over the counter. and most Dr's won't see you till your at least 8 weeks If not 10-12. I know with both my girls it was 11 weeks and I got a ultra sound. and it was the same with this pregnancy.

I feel the same way. Like my OB just doesn't care about my pregnancy. It's always in and out when I go. And I schedule my own appointments otherwise I'd never get in. You just have to take charge and make sure they see you. The beginning appointment is always the most important. It sets you up for the rest of the pregnancy.

When you call around I would ask then when is the earliest that they will see you because a lot of offices wont see you before a certain week.
