Positive pregnancy test, now what? In this video I break down all the need to know information about that first prenatal visit. Prenatal care helps to reduce illness, complications and death rates related to pregnancy. Here are some free resources for those who need them: English (800) 311-BABY . Spanish (800) 504-7081. Healthcare.gov Also, here is the link to the GTPAL video ua-cam.com/video/wH7-LtQx9eI/v-deo.html and the Due Date Calculator video ua-cam.com/video/QVIb2dbZ1vw/v-deo.html
If you even have one positive test you’re pregnant lol. When she said you may have a positive but not be.. 😑 I’ve never heard of that.. congratulations 🎉
Actually as a nursing student we need as a part of our requirements. We need this kind of video, on how to assess prenatal care, but the question how? We need preference please! Exact procedure. How to assess pregnant women throught it?
Hey I know this is irrelevant to this video but I've been looking for videos on how to perform injections( subcutaneous, intramuscular etc.). Do you have videos of these? I Can't find them on my own. Thanks in advance and keep teaching us!!
@@ninas4968 I talk to my doctor and he said women have different HCG levels in their body and that 10 times out 10 if a woman gets a positive pregnancy test is for a child not anything else. He said it’s rare for it to be gestational trophoblastic. She may get a positive but no baby in the stomach. He also said other pregnancy symptoms would not be present either. So idk.
You have the right to refuse anything but the pelvic exam is done to assess for any abnormalities or signs of illness/infection that could complicate the pregnancy.
@@AuroraDarling24 some abnormalities need to be visualized but yes there are special circumstances where patients decline the pelvic exam usually due to PTSD from previous assault

Please do a video about family planning and STD! I love your videos!
hi!! could you possibly do a video on pediatric assessment? i’m taking it at the same time as maternity right now!
Is this abbreviated in any way if the patient is intending to terminate the pregnancy?
Super helpful!!!! Thanks
Would they do an ultrasound at 5-6 weeks?
That is not very common

How does a positive test not mean your pregnant? I thought the whole point of a test was detect any levels of HCG?? I’m lost

@thatnursingprof Would it be appropriate to decline the pelvic exam?
You have the right to refuse anything but the pelvic exam is done to assess for any abnormalities or signs of illness/infection that could complicate the pregnancy.
@@thatnursingprof2661 Couldn't that be ruled out by the blood tests or lab work?

@@thatnursingprof2661 Thanks for your responses 😊
Is your first prenatal visit with your family doctor or OBGYN?
They should do similar things. The family doctor might schedule an ultrasound separately whereas the OBGYN will have it ready in their office.
