Update: Now What?

I took another HPT this morning, and got another positive...(lines are still not dark, but there is definitly a line).
So do I call my gyno today? Do I ask for an appointment to confirm this?

Call your gyno office and tell them that you got a +HPT. They'll ask when your last menstrual period was and determine when you should come in.

Standard protocols are different between practices. My practice had me come in at about 6 weeks (2 weeks after I called with my +HPT). Some have you wait until 8 weeks.

Congrats! Happy & Healthy 9 months to you!

Not really. You don't need immediate care [unless you were at risk beforehand, it's very unlikely they'll want to make room for you TODAY.] or attention from a dr.

Congrats!!

But no, you may not go in for a bit. I saw my doctor pretty quickly but that was because I had never been to that office before. I have heard that some offices wait til 8-10 weeks since HPTs are so accurate these days.

My Dr. waits until 8 weeks to actually see you, but they had me come in as soon as I got my BFP for blood wrok. I just went right in, had blood drawn and left.
