Will your gynae ask you on your first visit if you have had an abortion before? I don't want to reveal this piece of info in front of my mum in law, whom I am bringing with me to my first appointment. Gasp!

No. Normally gynae will ask if this is your first pregnancy and any family history of serious illness e.g. high blood pressure. If this will be your 2nd baby, gynae will ask if there is any complication or issue during the previous pregnancy.
