[quote=Anonymous]I'm also a patient with Kaiser. The main thing they do at the first appointment (assuming you're 8ish weeks) is the ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy, check the heartbeat, measure the fetus, and get your due date. Heads up that it's a transvaginal ultrasound. You'll get to see the fetus on the monitor, and the doctor will likely print a picture for you to take home. Beyond the ultrasound, if memory serves, the doctor will want to know when your last missed period was and I think they also review the parts of your medical history that would be most relevant to a pregnancy (high blood pressure, previous pregnancies, etc.).
