I forget.  I'll be 28 w 1 d when I go tomorrow....will I go back in 2 weeks or 4? I remember from first 2 pg that time seemed to speed up once the drs appts became more frequent!

  • I think it was at 32.  I went at 28, 32, 34, 36, and then every week.

  • At 36 Weeks is when I start going every week. Time is kind of dragging for me right now so I'm hoping that things will pick up once I get to that point.

  • I have an appt on Tues and from th en on it will be every 2. My last appt was 2 weeks ago

  • It depends on your doctor's practice and your health.  I started appts every 2 weeks at 32, and I'll start weekly appointments at 36.  I have friends who've started appointments every two weeks at 28.
  • I went every 4 weeks until 28 weeks, now I am going every 2 weeks until 36 weeks, then once a week. 
  • Started 2-week appointments at 32 weeks, then will go to 1-week appointments at 36 weeks.

  • It's been asked before and varied from doctor to doctor-- but I had one at 28wks, and then my next is at 30wks. However, mine mentioned at my 24 wk appt. that starting at 28wks I'd be going every two... if you haven't gotten a heads up you might still be every 4 wks.

    This, exactly.

    This.

  • The 11th (my next appointment) will be 2 weeks since I saw my OB last, before that I went 3 weeks without seeing him for just one week. So its gone 4 to 3 to 2 in the last 3 visits. After the 11th I see him in two weeks one more time then every week after that.

  • My OB wanted to see me 3 weeks after my last appt so I will be 30 weeks then and then he wants to see me every 2 weeks after that.

  • I was started on two week appts early because of blood pressure problems, but he told me that normally he would start the every two week appointments after the 28 week one.

  • We see the Dr. every 2 wks after 28 wks until 36 wks and then we will go every wk. 
  • My doctor starts at 28 weeks...then it switches to every week at 36. 
  • my OB does 1X a month from 0-28 weeks, then from 28-36 weeks it's 2X a month, then every week from then until delivery.

  • My Doctor told me at my 28 week appointment that I'd need to come back at 32 weeks (so 4 weeks) and then make appointments 2 weeks apart for 34 and 36 weeks - then start coming every week.
  • For my doc you go to 2 weeks at the 28 appt. (28, 30, 32, 34, 36) and then every week after that.
