Yes! Not much can be seem before then and still ultrasounds are vaginal until about 12 weeks I believe.

Yep

I had a similar experience where I got my first appointment at 11 weeks. Everything was fine and great. I know you can get a bit anxious, but donāt worry things will be fine in the end.ā¤ļø

They can't see much before then so there's no point. Unless you're high risk and they decide to look earlier.

I sadly didnāt get my first appointment until 10 weeks but typically they donāt schedule you till 8 weeks

Yes, even as a high risk pregnancy, my first appointment with OB wasnāt until 8 weeks
