Good ? To ask MFM?

mrsjami

First appt today, any suggestions for good questions to ask??

My questions may be a little different, since I'm expecting triplets, but here is what I asked at my first appt:

Can I exercise?

Do I need additonal vitamins/supplements?

Do you recommend seeing a nutritionist/dietician?

Is bedrest a requirement at some point or only if medically necessary?

Is a vaginal birth possible?

At what point would they induce labor/require c-section?

Is having sex okay now and even later in pregnancy?

Should anyone having contact w/babies get Pertussis and Flu vaccines?

Would MFM deliver or would I need to see an OB as well?

When would I get my Rhogam shot?  (I'm rh-, DH is +)

Is going to a chiropractor still safe?

What weight gain is recommend?

How will they monitor for TTTS (my 3 are di/tri)?

How frequently will I have appts?

I hope this helps.  As I mentioned to another MoM before, bring a pen and notebook to write stuff down.  You'll get a lot of information all at once.  And be prepared for the selective reduction speech.  We knew we wouldn't reduce, but hearing them talk about getting rid of 2 of our babies (with our trips, they suggest getting rid of the mo/di twins) was hard to hear.  Good luck!
