Pregnant At 42 - How To Check If The Obj/Gyn Is Right One

0 Replies
luckygurl - April 27

So this is my first time being pregnant and it came as a surpise. I am in week 4 to 5 of my pregnancy in Calfornia. Since I just moved to the USA 2 years ago, I do not have any friends or family to recommend a good Obj. I found one online with decent reviews and only one accepting appointments the day after I did the home test. 

At first I was not sure if it was pre meno or was it true. She ran a urine test only(no blood test) and confirmed I am pregnant. Then when I told her I was not sure if I got pregnant 2 months ago, she did a vaginal ultrasound. She found a thick lining and nothing else. She has asked me to come after 3 weeks as it is too early. She took my history and explained to me my high risk situation and did sound nice. She asked me to take prenatal with dha and follic acid everyday ( but never handed me any written instructions etc). Is that normal?

I belong to another country so am nervous if I am in the right hands. Can anyone please share their experience of their first trimester in the USA
