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.
The goal of prenatal visits is to see how your pregnancy is proceeding and to provide you with information to help keep you and your baby healthy. It's important that you go to all of your prenatal appointments, even if you're feeling just fine and believe that everything is progressing perfectly.
