  I wouldn't worry about it, honestly. Unless something feels wrong to you, or you think you're in labor..there really is no reason to absolutely have to go in. These appointments are only like 5 minutes at most anyway.
  If you're really unsettled though, call your doctor and see if they will reschedule you for another day. I'm sure they would be able to get you in. Good luck

  I had two appointments cancelled because my OB was delivering another baby and then had the flu. My office rescheduled me with a nurse practitioner in the practice so I at least got to see someone. If you're concerned, I would ask if you can come in and at least meet with a nurse to take the normal vital stats like heartbeat and fundal height. My nurse always does that and the urine testing before I see my doctor. Not sure if that's even an option but you could try!

  I would deffinatly try to go in make sure everything is alright. Even if you go get a non stress test. I almost lost my son at 39 weeks but went in for a non stress and they found out in time. Had to have an emergency csection. Better to be safe then sorry.

  That seems ridiculous to me. I'd call and ask to at least go in for the urine screen, heart rate check, measurement and BP. A nurse can likely do those. 3 weeks between appointments at this point seems like way too long. They may not realize that you were on both cancelled days.
