Thanks everyone for all your answers, new question, I have no ideal where to start. I don't know what kind of doctor to see for the pregnancy or when to start going. Please, more answers would be great.

You should see a OBGYN as soon as you think you are pregnant... Ask friends who is best or ask ladies in stores where you shop who they like and do not like... call these OBGYNs and ask for a " get to know them" visit for the ones in your area who are most recommended and after you have gone to the visits pick the one you like... Make sure to ask a lot of questions and never pick a Dr who doesn't have time to answer you or treats you like you are asking stupid questions... And do not pick a DR. who is too busy to take the time to listen... This Dr is too busy and will not give you the attention you need... and just because a DR. is busy doesn't mean he is good... Ask, me anything I have 11 children... :D...

Depending on where you live sometimes an obgyn will only take patients by referral of a family doctor. There is a full physical and ultrasound at about 3-4 months that is very important. Pregnancy can cause allergies or temporary diabetes, they check for this and if your blood type is a R- they set up an appointment for the inhibitor shot.
