58 Comments. 1  I always find this topic amusing â coming from the UK â as we use grams and kilograms for food and similar measurements, so we use a âtrue weightâ. My parents are of the âpounds and ouncesâ generation and counting things in 12s is just weird now in the uk!
Here are a few things you may expect in your 1st prenatal visit: 1  Your gynecologist will help you understand the process especially if you are a first-time mom. 2  It is important that from the very first visit you feel free to ask your doctor about any query or concern you have.
1 Getting early prenatal care. If you know you're pregnant, or think you might be, call your doctor to schedule a visit. 2  Getting regular prenatal care. Your doctor will schedule you for many checkups over the course of your pregnancy. Don't miss any â they are all important.  Following your doctor's advice.
