Multiples

when do you start to see the OB more?

I saw a peri at 16wks and he didn't say i needed to come back. I go to an OB with high tech machines so i'm not sure if I really need to go back unless there is a problem.

When did you start to see your OB every 2wks??

Thanks!

  • Beginning at 28 weeks I start seeing my OB every 2 weeks.  The weird part is the way my OB's vacation and u/s's were at the beginning I've actually had an appt every 2 weeks from the start, but I see the OB, and then 2 weeks later is my U/S, then 2 wks later my OB again.  So I feel like I've been on a 2 week schedule the whole time.

  • I've gone every 2 weeks since about 18 or 20 weeks.

  • I've gone every 2 weeks since 8 weeks. I see my midwife every two weeks and then the peri once a month so I have three appointments every month.

  • I started going to the MFM (I'm not seeing an OB) every two weeks starting at 16 weeks for cervical length checks and growth scans every 4 weeks. After my growth scan next week, I'll start going weekly.

  • I'm only seeing my OB and he said we would assess the need to come in more frequently with each visit or if complications arise in between visits. Right now I'm only seeing him 1x/month. Next appointment is next week at 20 weeks.

  • I've been there every 2 weeks since the beginning (had a 4-week confirmation/consultation, a 6-week dating u/s, and an 8-week u/s. I'm going back in for a 10-week u/s, too).  Part of the reason for that is that we aren't as far a long as we initially thought (we thought we'd be 8 weeks at my dating u/s and ended up only being 6).  They want me back for a 10-week u/s because they found an empty 3rd sac at my last appointment and they want to see what's going on with it.

    My OB office does take multiples very seriously though - I've been taken out of the midwife rotation and have to see OBs from now on, and I'll be going every 2-3 weeks from now till the end.

  • I've gone every two weeks since 12 weeks and at 32 weeks starting going weekly.
  • I've gone every 2 weeks since 26 weeks.  I'm not sure I will get a chance to start the weekly appointments, I know I have one at 34 & 36 weeks.
