Pregnancy is one of the most important medical events in a woman's life. It is the beginning of life so it is important to go early to the Dr so you can have a healthy baby. The Dr will get you started on prenatal vitamins and will ask you basic questions about you health, any problems you might have been experiencing, like morning sickness and your daily habits. This is to ensure you are living a healthy life style for you and your unborn baby. The Dr will need to know if there has been any type of health problems in your family that can affect your pregnancy. Some of these can be diabetes, high blood pressure, hepatitis etc. They ask personal questions about drug use, drinking, smoking, sexual partners and although they might seem a bit extreme it is only to ensure your baby will be born healthy and that your pregnancy will be one without any complications. When you are there, ask any questions you might feel are pertinent. A healthy baby is our ultimate goal!

they will test your urine and blood~ to make sure everything is in its normal levels~
measure height, weight, blood pressure, pulse.
They need to know any medical history from u, such as other pregnancy, misscarriage, any cancer, or other health related topics... And it would be a good idea to tell them a general family history~

They do a complete pelvic exam.
Check you urine

Then you are sent for a complete blood work up. Checkin all sorts of things.
