Questions for my MFM

I hope this hasn't been asked a million times.

I'm just wondering if any of you have any advice for me when I see my MFM for the first time tomorrow. Basically, are there any "must-ask" questions that you guys can think of in regards to having twins? (I'm in Canada so money/insurance stuff is of no concern.)

I was only thinking of stuff like how often will I see you, how many ultrasounds, will I only see you? There's probably more but I can't think of it. I'll also tell him about how I've been feeling and whatnot.

Anyways, any advice you guys have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much! :)

    I would ask what involvement he will have in any delivery decisions. Will he leave it up to you and your ob, or does he want to be an active part of the process? I have had two different MFMs, and they had two different philosophies on this, so it would be good to know.

    Thanks @AnotherDreamer! I hope your appointment goes well, too! Your questions are pretty close to what I'll need to ask, too, like in regards to loss and preterm labour. I have so many questions but it's too early for most of them! :P Will let you know how it goes.

    @AnotherDreamer has a great list. I would add a follow-up to the "Do they deliver?" question: If they don't normally deliver, what circumstances would they do the delivery? For us, they say they don't deliver, but they do if the need to deliver arises before 32 weeks.

    You could also ask about regular cervical checks and an early glucose screening.
