How Often?

wkfouts

How often do you ladies go in for a doctor's appointment? Right now I go every 4 weeks. Does that change once we hit the 3rd trimester?

TIA

Yes.  My next 4 week appointment is next Tuesday.  I will be 27 weeks.  After that, I believe I start going every 2 weeks.  Then the last month, it's every week.

After 28 weeks, they want me every 2 weeks. Sometime later on it switches to once a week, I'm not sure when that is.

I go 3 times a month.

-every 4 weeks to the OB

-every 2 weeks to the High Risk doc.

It used to be every 4 before my complications. I think I may start doing the high risk one every 4 weeks soon though but I think at 30-34ish weeks the OB becomes every 2 weeks..

I go every four weeks until 32 weeks, every two weeks from 32-36 weeks, and every week from 36 to delivery.

Every 4 weeks.  Eventually it will be every 2 weeks, then every 1 week.  I can't recall what weeks that starts though... I'll have to dig out the packet from the OB.

Thanks, ladies!

It's been every 4...I think I start every 2 after this next appt next week.

I've been going every 4 weeks. Starting next month, at 28 weeks, I'll go every 2. And then I think I'll go every week starting at 36 weeks.

I go in every 4 weeks and then at 30 weeks it's every 2 weeks and at 36 weeks it's every week.

Right now I'm still at every 4 weeks.  I had my regular MW appointment today and the next one is at the end of March.  I think after that I start every 2 weeks but I'm not sure.

The office I am at changes you to every 3 wks starting at week 18.  It is honestly a pain since right now it is weight, bp, hb out the door!  I would rather do 4wks until the 3rd tri!

It's been 4 weeks up to this point.  After my appointment tomorrow it will be every 2 weeks.  I think they said at 36 weeks we switch to every week.

I guess I'm an odd ball- I have appointments every 6 weeks right now. I'm not sure what/when that will change.

they just switched me to every 3 weeks after my 25 week appt...kind of annoying to me too...not sure when they switch to two weeks

I'm a little envious of the "every 4 weeks" ladies...but I do love getting to see my LO almost every week.  Between my reg OB and my high-risk OB, I've had an appt almost every week, and never longer than 2 weeks, ever since I had my dating appt at 6 weeks.  It's just become part of our routine.
