I recently calculated that I am 10 weeks and 2 days pregnant, but I haven't had the chance to see a doctor due to work and personal commitments. Is it wrong for me to delay seeing a doctor? This is not my first pregnancy, and I have been taking prenatal pills since finding out. Do I really need to go to the doctor right away?

It is generally recommended to see a healthcare provider as soon as possible after confirming your pregnancy, especially if you have not had any prenatal care yet. While taking prenatal pills is beneficial, regular check-ups with a doctor are important for monitoring your health and the development of your baby. During these visits, your healthcare provider can perform essential tests, such as ultrasounds and bloodwork, to ensure everything is progressing well. They can also provide guidance on nutrition, exercise, and any potential risks or complications specific to your situation. Delaying medical care may increase the chances of missing out on crucial interventions or early detection of any issues that could affect you or your baby's health. If you are unable to visit a doctor due to work or personal commitments, consider discussing alternative options with your healthcare provider, such as telehealth appointments or finding a more convenient time for an in-person visit. Remember that seeking timely medical advice is vital for ensuring the best possible outcome for both you and your baby during pregnancy.

Yes you do! If anything you need to go and make sure everything is ok and then you don't have to go except one a month... It's selfish if you can't give up once a month for a new baby.. Sorry truth hurts..

But that's not the truth, thats you simply attacking her  to do something. Bubs will be fine just like mine was when my first scan was at 10 weeks too. Trust yourself first :)
