I am seeing a midwife so my experience might be different - also I'm in Canada. But my midwife saw me at 5 weeks and did requsitions for bloodwork. My next appointment wasn't til 9.5 weeks and that was the "big one" where she did a pelvic exam listened for heartbeat etc. Also did a full medical history at that time.

Hey RK,

How my doc works is she does a nurse in-take appt then you schedule a pap, pelvic at 12 weeks. Then from there you don't have another un-dress until further along.

I was just over 8 weeks at my first exam. I filled out a ton of paperwork on my medical history (new doc for me). They weighed me in, I peed in a cup, they did a pap, pelvic exam and then an ultrasound to check out my little bean. They also ordered blood work/urinalysis and then scheduled me for an appointment for a month later.
