Got a BFP who do I call first?
Hey ladies,
I am new here and was looking for some advice. I took a pregnancy test this morning and got a BFP. Was just wondering what doctors to call first...
Do I just call my regular obgyn and try to make an appointment for as soon as possible?
I also have thyriod problems, should I call my endocrine right away too? Does it matter who I see first?
Thanks!!

They may have you come in for bloodwork this week, but there won't be anything to see on a sono until you are 6wks. Also, most OBs don't have you come in until 8wks..depends on the practice!
Good luck!!

Re: Got a BFP who do I call first?
congrats! depends on your thyroid issue. i'm on monitoring just to make sure my synthroid level doesn't need to be adjusted. i didn't call my endo until it was time for a refill last week. my ob checked my thyroid levels the first time I had blood taken (at 6w) and it was normal. I just had blood taken at 12w and the results were sent to the endo since i was due to have him check them anyway.
wow that was long winded. hopefully that kind of helped!

Re: Got a BFP who do I call first?
They may not have you come in until 8 weeks. Mine had me come in at around 6 1/2 to do the routine check up I was due for anyway and a simple blood test to tell if I was indeed pregnant. Then they had me come back at 8 weeks for my first sono. They don't like to do it before because many times there is nothing to see (or hear) yet.
Congrats and Welcome!!!!
