10 week appt question

calipghbrider

So I am gonig to the doctor for my 10 week appt today.  I had some minor brown spotting so I know they will do an in office u/s, but she told me to save a list of all my questions and bring them in.

 

So far I am going to ask about:

 

NT Scan

Weight Gain

Gym - running etc

I already know what I can and can't eat - she told me that

 

Are there any other questions I should ask her that I may be forgetting?

 

Thanks so much for your help!

You may be aware of this, if so, just ignore me... I didn't know until I was well into my 2nd tri with DS #1 that I couldn't lift more than 20 lbs.  I had lifted some boxes (we were moving!) and I had some brown spotting.  Just thinking, that may be what your spotting was.

I also asked my ob about approved medications, facewash and other products I've heard are harmful, intimacy while pg and which appts DH would not want to miss.  He can't come to all of them, but I wouldn't want him to miss an u/s or anything.

For lifting - thank you,  I also found this out the hard way.  I had a bit of spotting a few weeks ago and that was it.  I have been concentrating just on cardio and just light lifting.  It is definitly a change.  How have you changed your workouts?

 

Those are great questions - I never thought of.  I am adding them to my list now.  If you think of any others please let me know

I have several questions about labor & delivery that I plan on asking my midwife. I'm assuming you will see several ob's throughout your care so I'm not sure if this will be of any interest to you.

Can I eat/drink during labor?

What are the rules for the birthing tubs? (some hospitals require you to be a certain # of cm dialated, some won't let you use it if your water has broken)

What will you physically do to help me cope w/labor? (massage, pressure points, labor position suggestions...)

How many people are allowed in the birthing room. (I only plan on having dh there, but I know some women prefer to have more)

Can I have intermitten monitoring rather than constant?

Looks like you are one day ahead of me... exciting August baby huh?!  I don't have anything to add to you list of questions, but I had some brown spotting and the doctor said we should hold off on any intimacy for 7 days to prevent any infections. Just thought I'd share.

 Have fun at the 10 week!
