When do your weekly appointments start?

skio · May 2013

I was just at the OB Friday and OB said, "See you next week" at the end. I don't feel like going this week. Honestly, the only day I could even go is Thursday, and that doesn't work because I have no one to watch DD.

I thought the weeklies started at 36w...when did/do yours start?

Monkeybutt80 · May 2013

yeah mine starts at 36weeks

They started at 36W last time for me too. This time I'm HR so I started weekly apointments at 33 weeks.

My weeklies are starting today (wk 36). Maybe dr wants to monitor you closer? Or it was just a slip of the tongue?

GingerBabyTX · May 2013

I go this week (when I'll be right at 35w) and then it's every week after that.

BLT20051 · May 2013

This week! I'll be almost 37 but her schedule and mine didn't mesh well this week.

ameh13 · May 2013

My OB starts at 36 weeks

RIngReady · May 2013

My OB started mine at 34 weeks. That is normal for the practice I go to. They start internals (which I know is a whole other post) starting at 37.

I am so tired of going to the Dr.s!

Mine start this week at 36 weeks.

melissa0726 · May 2013

36 weeks

skio · May 2013

Cool. I'm just going to consider it a slip and go next week. There's no reason for close monitoring or anything, so I'm comfortable waiting.

38 weeks

Mine would normally start at 36 weeks, which would be in two weeks, but I've been going to either an u/s appointment or checkup for the last 4 weeks when I had the bleeding episode. I have a checkup tomorrow and then an u/s next Monday so I'm hoping he'll be ok with skipping a checkup that week. Too many darn appointments.

I go this Thursday at week 35 and then continue weekly from here. What details can you tell me about "internals?" - do they check the cervix each time?

Mine start at 36 weeks.

mrshuys · May 2013

I'm at every 2 weeks until 38 weeks. When I asked if I would then be seen at 39 weeks and 40 weeks, she said we'll see...maybe not.

chelsmcl · May 2013

36 weeks for me.

kriskell · May 2013

36

kaleyandjason · May 2013

Mine started last week at 35w.

notquiteblushing · May 2013

36 weeks.

Wedding on the Beach 2008 · May 2013

I go this week (36 weeks) and then I start every week

heavenpaige · May 2013

Last week was my 35wk and now I will start going every week.

bluelovin · May 2013

I started weekly appointments at 34 weeks.

AZMagnini14 · May 2013

35 weeks for me.

emolm · May 2013

Never. I'm having a boring pregnancy so I only have appts every two weeks. My last appt is scheduled for 37w6d and he said we'll decide then whether to have me come in the next week or whether to wait two more weeks.

veronicamars747 · May 2013

Mine will be at 35w, but I think it's more to do with the fact that I was first seen on an odd number (9 weeks) and I've always been off since that first appointment.

SLaBM2B · May 2013

This week.

Mommy2CB · May 2013

My weekly appts started back at 27/28wks.. but I'm high risk.. or.. I was! Officially passed that point this week

sparklemotion86 · May 2013

Technically I should have one this week (37 weeks on Friday), but my doctor will be out of town. So, I have one next week at 38 weeks and then at 39 and 40.

Has everything been ok like your blood pressure and such?
