The date of menustration
The size of your uterus.
The baby's heartbeat.
By doing a ultrasound.
It is very important that you have prenatal vists. Even if you are very healthy you should have visits. Anything could pop up during your pregnancy, like diabetes for example. Prenatal visits can be a little scary at times, but your baby depends on you to take care of him or her. Hearing your baby's heartbeat and seeing the ultrasound of your baby is priceless.
