  • Weight and blood pressure
  • Urine, for sugar and protein
  • Fetal heartbeat
  • Height of fundus (top of uterus)
  • Size of uterus and position of fetus, by external palpation
  • Feet and hands for sweelling and legs for varicose veins
  • Symptoms you may have been experiencing, especially unsual ones
  • Questions and problems you want to discuss

    What you may be feeling: You may experience all of these symptoms at one time or another, or only a few of them. Still others may hardly be noticed because you’ve become so used to them.
