How early should I book for a gynae check up?

I am currently 5 weeks based on test kit results. Would the gynae refuse to see me and have me wait until 8 weeks? Plan to get some prenatal vitamins like folic acid but I need to wait for a professional advice #firsttimemom #advicepls

Hello! I also tested positive at week 5, gynae was ok to see me at 6 weeks for first scan to confirm the pregnancy. Then my 2nd appointment was 10 days later to check baby’s heartbeat. Since the first scan until now (9 weeks), I’ve only been taking folic acid prescribed by gynae (GNC brand, 1 tab per day 800 mcg). He said only folic acid is needed at this stage, calcium etc not needed yet. I guess if you buy over the counter folic acid is also fine.
