Am I missing something.... I just called an ob (not my first pic) for my first appointment and they didn't ask any questions besides my insurance information??? When I had my first daughter there was a laundry list of questions before I even made the appointment. Is this the new standard or should I find another doctor?
Congrats! I have no info about the appointment though
Congratulations !!! 🎉
They usually ask more questions at the appointment. I feel like they might of asked me how far along I thought I was
Whoop whoop!!!!! Congratulations!!!!
Did they ask for email address? I feel like most appointments I make now they send me a link or something with stuff to fill out
@massgirl, weird. I typed a response and then realized you had answered that already for someone else... I’d bring your own pen because you may have a stack to fill out
I got asked some questions but I was also a new patient there
Congratulations!!!! 🎉 I wasn’t asked anything, I’m guessing they had the information from the referral, maybe. 🤷♀️
They didn't get a referral since I did ivf.
@massgirl when I had my first ob appointment after ivf they did ask questions but usually the IVf clinic ask you what ob your going to an they send the information over to ob. But for me they have all the info an still asks me. An congrats on a successful IVF pregnancy.
Um congratulations!! Maybe they were busy or no longer want to ask those questions on the phone? For new place appointments I usually get asked insurance info.
Thanks ladies! I guess it's been so long I just don't know what proper protocol is anymore lol.
That’s how I feel. I’m using the same ob that I had with my son and sometimes I’m like did we do this the first time around or is this new ?
@imacat yeah. It's been 7 years for me and my first ob who I loved is down in Florida and clearly isn't an option anymore lol
Congrats!!! From my experience that’s really it they ask all the questions at your appointment and they should seek your medical records or ask for them and then after reviewing asking any questions.
I believe you fill out forms during your first appointment if I remember correctly.
They will have you review your info when you get there. They have you in their system assuming nothing has changed.
@massgirl, I’m sure you’ll fill out the new patient paperwork there. That’s a lot of questions lol
@rayofmysunshine oh I know. I guess it's just odd that they didn't even ask how many weeks I thought I was or anything. Weird.
@massgirl, that is weird. Maybe the lady was busy lol
My first appointment went well except when. I had to drink that little orange soda it was disgusting 😞

This is gonna be my first, but I want 2. :)
Just a quick question does my boyfriend HAVE to go with me to my first prenatal appointment with me or no?
im so scared this is an ectopic pregnancy my first appointment isnt until june 1st how can i be sure its not?
Thinking about switching to a Midwife. 😒 I have no connection with my doctor. This is my first pregnancy. i want to be comfortable to ask all the questions i want to. Appointments are like 4 mins long.
Congratulations!!
