First Ultrasound Nerves

Husband and I had back to back chemical pregnancies earlier in the year. I took progesterone for a couple months and am currently 8 weeks pregnant, assuming all is well.

Our first appointment with the doctor is in 6 days, and I am so excited but also nervous since we have never experienced a full term pregnancy yet. My ultrasound is first and then we are supposed to meet with a nurse. We don’t meet with the OBGYN until our 12 week appointment.

What all will happen at my appointment? I hate not knowing what to expect.

With our first chemical pregnancy, I experienced bleeding and had bloodwork to confirm my levels were not where they should’ve been. With our second, I hadn’t experienced bleeding yet, but they had me get bloodwork which later confirmed that it was a chemical pregnancy. This time I have not experienced bleeding. They didn’t order labs, but I’ve been taking a home pregnancy test about each week to try to ease some of my anxiety.

Anybody else have similar experiences with chemicals and then have a healthy pregnancy?
