Preeti replied. I'm in US and I went to a ob/gyn straightaway...wasn't too long a wait..they gave me my first appt after 2 weeks...and yeah, go for the pre natal tablets as soon as possible...

The questions that my ob/gyn asked me were how long I had been trying..how often in the week were we intimate...and suggested that that we can try more during the ovulation period (which starts abt 5-6 dayys after yr period ends)..etc etc..I think with the info you have, you would be good...All the Best!!:) priya replied. Hi, I am in canada and I am sure the procedures are quiet similar in US and Canada.
1. usually your physician will be able to answer most of your questions. You will only get an appointment with Gynec when you are 10+ weeks pregnant. Otherwise it is a long wait
2.I guess that info is enough for you. Also get your blood work done along with Pap
3. There is not much to ask them. I got answers to all my questions before becomming pregnant thru babycenterdotcom and this website.
4. Take Prenatal multi-vitamins instead of the regular ones... Pre and During pregnancy needs lots of FOLIC ACID which is not in regular multivitamin(as much as we need)

It is a fun time. If your husband wants to come with you... that is really good, get him involved sooner . Once you are pregnant you can take him with you to all your checkups as well

Good luck
