  • I am, but I've only had the first of my weekly visits.  So I'm not feeling crazy yet.  But I've been going every other, so I basically feel like I'm there all the time.

  • I have to go in to see my MFM doctor TWICE a week.  The receptionist used to ask if anything had changed since my last appointment, now she doesn't even need me to tell her my name to check in.....I feel like I am there all the time.  Yesterday my 20 minute appointment turned into 3 1/2 hours and by the time I left I was chatting it up at the nurses' station while I was waiting between seeing people!

  • I'm on weekly appointments. I like them. They give me reassurance that everything is going ok. I get either a NST or an ultrasound.

    Soon I'll start going 2x a week. I think next week. That might get a little daunting especially since I have to use vacation time for my appointments. Oh well....

  • When should my doctor start scheduling weekly appointment? The last time I saw him was about a month ago. I'm going next week and I'll be 32 weeks.
  • Guess I'm out of the loop lol I'm still on bi weekly appt's!  My next one isn't until May 4th...I'll be 36 weeks so maybe I'll be weekly then Stick out tongue
  • I have one more biweekly then I am on to my weekly.  I used to work 5 minutes away from the ob but got transferred an hour away - now it feels like I have to drive there non stop :(

  • I start weekly appointments as of this week. At my appointment last week my Dr. decided that I should be going in weekly & for NST at each appointment due to chronic HT and also let me know that it could turn into twice a week at some point. So this week starts my weekly visits.

  • At my last appointment, which was 31 weeks, I was still doing monthly appointments. I'm starting every 3 weeks. I suppose my doctor's office is not concerned?

    When should my doctor start scheduling weekly appointment? The last time I saw him was about a month ago. I'm going next week and I'll be 32 weeks.

    At the practice I go to, for an uneventful pregnancy you are seen monthly until 32 weeks. After 32 weeks you go every 2 weeks, and then after 36 weeks you go weekly. So the rest of my appointments will be at 32, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40  (hoping i don't get to 41!)

    This is the schedule for my midwife, too. I switched from an OB group at week 28 or so and am very happy to only have frequent appointments and not ten million other (unnecessary in my mind) tests.

  • I just started my bi-weekly apts and will have my first one next week. 
  • I have been going every other week for the last month. Not sure when I start my weekly appointments, but I would say soon.

    I have been taking prenatal yoga at the hospital and DH and I started our baby classes, so for the last three weeks, I feel like I am there more than once a week. Luckly we live about 5 min away from the hospital/ doctor.

  • I go twice weekly--I feel like I live there.
  • I am still on biweekly appointments. I will start going weekly at 36 weeks. At my doctor's, for a healthy and complication-free pregnancy you go monthly until 26 weeks, then biweekly until 36 weeks, then weekly until delivery.

    I have an appointment next Tuesday (34 weeks) then will probably schedule another one 2 weeks out. After that I'll go every week.

  • I hope to delay my weekly appts as long as possible.  I have an appt tomorrow and I'm guessing she'll want to see me in two weeks, instead of next week.  As long as the baby is still moving, I'm not too concerned.  I really can't afford to miss that much work.

  • Next week I start going every week. It was every 4 weeks, then dropped to 3 last time, now only 2 and at the next visit they already told me I will start coming once a week.
  • I am on biweekly appointments but after my next one, at 36 weeks, I will be going in every week.

  • I'm in the twice weekly camp.  I have NST's twice a week, fluid checks every other week, and now weekly appointments with the OB.  I also have appointments with my GD case manager on a bi-weekly basis, growth ultrasounds every couple of weeks (this last time it was 3 weeks) and at the same time an appointment with a Perinatologist.  I DEFINITELY feel like I live there.

  • I am on every 2 weeks.  I go for one on May 9th, and then May 23rd, and then I switch to weekly. :)

  • I started twice weekly appointments this week (went once last week) due to GD.  I have an NST one day and then another I go for an NST, ultrasound, and meet with my OB.  In addition, I see my GD every other week.

  • I've started the weekly visits.. I had been going every other week since I was 22 or 23 weeks I think. Can't really remember when they started that.. But I was being monitored for a lot of health risks. I like the weekly visits because they give me another "time marker" to look forward to.

  • I'd been going every 2 weeks for about the last 6 weeks, and just found out at today's appointment that I now get to switch to weekly...joy.  Oh well, at least I'm usually in and out pretty quickly.

    I am starting my weekly OB appointments this coming week. However, since I got my rash/diagnosed with pemphigoid gestationis I have been at either  the OB or dermatologist every week it seems. It's getting close ladies! :)

  • I'm also now on weekly appointments.  Plus I have to go in for physical therapy twice a week so I feel like I'm at the doctor's ALL THE TIME.
