Let us know how your appointments this week are going!

Re: Weekly Appointments 01/04

  • i have my A/S tomorrow and just got word DH can't come in with me  :(
    having him wait in the car for emotional support 

    also i'm annoyed by this because when they left me a VM confirming appt yesterday they didnt mention this.  only reason i found out is because i called them to reconfirm appointment time (they have something different down) and the automated prompts informed me!

  • @liz101015 i am impressed you are hanging onto team green!  i already knew gender but if i didnt before, i wouldnt definitely known after the scan today!!

    everything went well and everything in range.  such a HUGE relief today. TGIF!
  • I had my appointment today with my OB/MFM. All is well! I have to keep monitoring my blood pressure at home because in office it's not good 😅 No more ultrasound for me until 28 weeks 😬 That's when we'll monitor my cervix again, baby's kidney and the amniotic fluid level. Nothing to be concerned about at this point. I had a little more fluid than normal at my AS, which could indicate diabetes or nothing like baby just had a bigger wee before the ultrasound. Guess we'll find out about diabetes in a few weeks. Baby's HB was 145 BPM, my uterus is at belly button level... she seemed happy with everything, even my weight gain of 8 lbs in 6 weeks 🤷‍♀️
  • @mimser if it makes you feel better, I won't have any more ultrasounds until 36 wks! Unless they refer me back to the mfm lab for monthly monitoring for my fibroids. Feels like so long to go without seeing him but I was lucky to have as many scans as I did at the beginning, and they'll use the doppler at all my visits so I'll still hear him.
  • @yellingbananaso glad Mia's heart continues to look good!

  • @queen_frostine eek. Induction is no fun. Coming from experience, it’s a lot harder than going into labor on your own. And a few of my friends experienced induced labor vs non-induced labor, they have the same feelings about it as me. It also increases your chance of a c-section. 
    I’d start looking up ways to naturally induce labor a couple weeks before your induction date!

  • @queen_frostine This is one of the things that bothered me a lot about my last pregnancy and I'm a little resigned to it happening this time. 

    My DS's doctor would not let me go past 39 weeks because he said he didn't want to do an emergency C-section and my DS was breeched. I would love to just let my body decide, but I keep thinking that the doctor will force me to schedule a C-section early and I really don't want that. And my fear of the doctor forcing me to have a C-section early means I'm afraid I'll get desperate and try some questionable home induction techniques. 
  • @ec1212 yeah I know in a way I've been lucky to see baby so often! It's just the longest I've gone without a scan is 5 weeks 😅 if I wasn't high risk and there wasn't anything to check on post-AS I would be done and would only have had 2!
  • Obviously I'll have a longer discussion before we determine the best course of action... and of course, if my placenta stays too low, it will have to be a C-section and going into labor naturally would be bad!
