So today I had my first doctors appointment yesterday and the doctor was not nice. They did my physical exam and are still going by the date if my last period to figure out my due date. I talked to my mom and she said that they should know how far along I am. My family doctor thought I was about 12 weeks and this guy said I am only 7 weeks. They also want to wait 13 more weeks to do an ultrasound. I also had no bloodwork or anything done. During the question part he asked if my bf and I were planning on getting married, and then asked if we went to college. He said that if we didn't go to college we wouldn't be able to support ourselves or the baby. I think this guy just needs to mind his own business!!!!!!!! Has anyone else had an exprience like this? Please share? And when was everyone's first ultrasound. Any answers would be helpful!!!!!

He probably was asking you the tough questions thinking he was making you seriously contemplate the reality of your situation. He wasn't very tactful, but as a physician, he probably sees many girls in similar situations and is probably worried about the trend. You're going to have to steel yourself for more comments and questions because they'll be coming as you show more. This is par for the course when you are pregnant as a young teen. I'm sorry it annoyed/hurt you, but this is just the beginning. He would do you and all his patients a disservice if he sugarcoated and made out like life will be peaches and cream for you. It's going to be hard and he wants you prepared. Again, he might have been nicer about it.

Ultrasounds are not good for the baby. Don't be in any hurry to have them. They normally don't do them until you are in the second trimester, which is why they can detect the gender of the baby. In the old days, if you got one at all, it was just that one unless there were problems.

the dr had no right to treat you like that..its his job to protect and help unborn babies and keep them healthy..i would talk to somebody about the way you were treated..it doesnt matter how young you are its not right that he did that..and why he wants to wait for the ultrasound i couldnt tell you..i had my first ultrasound with my daughter at 8 wks to determine due date..thats only way to know for sure when your due..Ultrasounds are not bad for the baby they help determine weight length birth defects normal heart beat etc...i would go to a diff dr this one really doesnt sound like he knows what hes doing..

hey girl that sucks... but she is right... he is probably just worried but if he makes you nervous and he doesnt stop then you probably might want ot find a new doc. but wait on the ultrasound part. they will come one of these days. trust me.

I would of asked him to mind his own business. When i went to the drs to get pregnant and find out why it wasn't happening, the dr turned to me and asked if either of us worked. Its not up to him. If you know that u can support a baby then do it.
Its not right that the dr couldn't tell when your bubs is due.Thats their job. Maybe see if you can go and see someone else that will look after you.

what a jerk! he has no right commenting on you personal life! i wish you the best and hope you find a better doctor soon.
