Do you get weighed at every Dr.'s appt?

nurseljg0708 · September 2009

My Doctor's office does not weigh me each time, just curious! TIA!

jdouglas84 · September 2009

Yup, I get weighed each time.

epopp85 · September 2009

Yep. It's my least favorite part. I always hold my breath until it stops. I feel like I'm on the Biggest Loser, but going the wrong way lol.

amanda1128 · September 2009

yep and they also have weighed me when I've had to go to L&D for preterm labor

rcollier_17 · September 2009

I wish my midwife didn't weigh me every time!! That'd be wonderful, but unfortunately she does.

LadyJavy · September 2009

Yes, urine test, weight, blood pressure and checking for the baby's heartbeat at every appointment. They just started measuring my belly in the past two appts.

katee2184 · September 2009

...every single time.

Jenn.J. · September 2009

Yup, every visit. It's the first thing they do.

TeamRey · September 2009

EbethM0231 · September 2009

nicolebuchalla · September 2009

goldenleaves · September 2009

nurseljg0708 · September 2009

My Dr. checks my urine, blood pressure, heartbeat w/ doppler, and measures my belly at every visit but doesn't weigh me each time...strange!

spacystasi · September 2009

Unfortunately.

HRALFS · September 2009

yes

angel22 · September 2009

Yep, every time.

cartzsbride2k8 · September 2009

Yup.

reannegummer · September 2009

I've been weighed every single time since 8 weeks. Like a pp mentioned, the nurse at my ob's office says my weight out loud to me too. Luckily where she weighs me isn't near the waiting room. They also do urine, blood pressure, doppler, and belly measurements each time too and since 32 weeks she's checked where baby's head is located each time too. Unfortunately the little bugger who used to be head down has been transverse for 3 weeks now.

ballugurl · September 2009

yep...right before I ahve to pee in a cup

STW2009 · September 2009

Yes ma'am

ChefHeather82 · September 2009

Yep. Lucky me.

Kalikins · September 2009

Yep I get weighed every time, as soon as I walk in from the waiting room, so anyone really listening could hear it. I am kinda glad though because I was really sick in the beginning and lost a ton of weight. I have been gaining it back and passed my pre pregnancy weight, but if I get sick or anything I stop gaining again so it is reassuring for me to see that I gained a few pounds between visits.

leahraewku · September 2009

Yep, and I got scolded last time for gaining too much weight which wasn't cool at all. I made it the entire time and then got called out at 37 weeks.

4realyo · September 2009

my midwife just asks for my weight. there is a scale in the bathroom where you do your pee cup, but i just give them the weight from my scale at home that morning since thats what I am used to.

ccrow · September 2009

Sadly yes, they weight me the minute i go back.

emmyloustu · September 2009

Yes, but I had an interesting expereince this morning. It was my first appt with the MW and she had me test my own urine with the test strip and weigh myself in the bathroom in private. It was really nice.

mrs_sherod · September 2009

Sadly...yes. Sad

mrs_sherod · September 2009

EbethM0231:
yes and they say the number out loud everytime

I tell them I'm not gonna look and not to say it out loud, just write it down.

HapPapFam · September 2009

Yes, unfortunatly every single time! lol

kob227 · September 2009

Yup, every time. I made a nurse put a huge sticky note in my file saying not to say my weight out loud. I laugh at myself every time I see that orange sticky note.

JungleJulia · September 2009

Yes, my OB weighs me every month. I'm expecting another weight "talk" this visit as I put on a whopping 3 whole pounds in less than 2 weeks (my OB is a weight nazi) Confused . Serves me right for buying an entire Dutch Apple Pie for myself from the orchard. But it was sooooo delish, I don't feel guilty.
