Default How far along will you be when you start....

...going to the OB every 2 weeks? 1 week?

I can't seem to remember when I started the 2 week appts with my other littles. Was it past 30 weeks? 32 weeks???

I have my appt next week (25 weeks)...then the following one will be 29 weeks....Do you think they will have me back at 33 weeks....or start the 2 weeks after the 29.

I bet it prolly vary's by OB's, huh?

If I remember correctly, I didnt go every 2 weeks until about 32 weeks, possibly later. Once a week not until 38 weeks, which meant I never went weekly, cause they were all born at 38 weeks except the first two.

I think it varies, last time I went once a month, then at 36 weeks I went every week. This OB will have me come in every two weeks after 28 weeks.

I want to say I started going every two weeks around 28 weeks. Although, I go to the ob nearly every two weeks now since I see both my ob and my high risk doctor.

After 32 weeks I start weekly non-stress tests to make sure the baby is still doing ok.

Of course I'm a different story because I'm 44 and considered high risk....sometimes they want to see me every two weeks now. Plus, I had an ultrasound at 6,7,10,12,14, 18, and 19 weeks and will have another ultrasound at 24 weeks, 32 weeks, and right before delivery. I'm 21- 22 weeks right now.

Well, I've already been going to see my OB every two weeks for quite some time now. I'm high risk to begin with, and then with the HG my OB wants to keep a close watch on the baby, who's already measuring a little behind and on small side. I'm not sure when I'll start seeing her every week.

I honestly can't remember if it's 28 or 32 weeks.... I *think* it's 32.

For me it starts at 28 weeks, then every week at 36 weeks I think. My next appt is on the 27th and I'll be 26 weeks so I don't know if I'll have one more month then start the every 2 weeks or what! I love when it becomes every 2 weeks cos then I know I'm getting close!!!

I just went from 4 to 3 week visits this last visit. Then we move to two week visits at 34 weeks.

According to the schedule they gave me they start every two weeks after 28 weeks and then weekly at 36 weeks... my next visit I'll be 27 weeks so they will schedule the next one at 30 weeks then I'm sure it will be every two weeks until 36 weeks...

I have one more monthly after this next appt. and then every 2 weeks, I think that puts me right at 29-30 weeks!

I go to the OB (the high risk OB) every 2 weeks, and i have since 14 weeks. I go to my rego OB every 4 weeks, I am not sure when she'll want to see me every 2 weeks, vs every 1 week since I am already being seen every 2 weeks...good question to ask next time I guess

I've been having 2 week appts. since 14 weeks. I had a couple in there that were 3 weeks just because of schedule conflicts. I'm also seeing a MFM specialist every 3 weeks. I think at my 30 week u/s, it goes to every 2 weeks? It would be nice if they could fall on the same day and save me some gas money on the frequent trips.
