Is this normal?

Question

So far since I have had my appointments (30 weeks now) they have not done any urine samples since my first appointment. Also, I thought I was supposed to go every 2 weeks but my next appointment is in 4 weeks in which I will be 34 weeks. Is that normal? I would want to note that all of tests have came out fine as far as anemia and sugar also my blood pressure has been fine.

Answer

I think it depends on the office. I have to give a urine sample every time to test for proteins and sugars. I start going every two weeks after 28 weeks as well

Answer

Every appointment for me. You doctors office sounds a bit slack.

Answer

My doctor does urine every time. My bp has been a little high and they even took my urine for a quick bp check. I'm almost 29 weeks and my two week appointments start in a month.

Answer

My doctors do the urine test every single time I have come in

Answer

They take urine every visit for me. Had an appt once a month until 29 weeks. Now its every three weeks.

Answer

The office I go to doesn't do urine samples until 32 weeks and on. Two week appts begin at 30 weeks and on (with weekly appts in the last month).

Answer

I have to do a sample at every appointment I think it's to check for protein in your urine

Answer

I've had my urine checked at every appointment as well. I have my next appointment at 32 weeks and they will start being every 2 weeks after that point.

Answer

They check my urine every appointment for protein, they said. And I started my 2 week appointments now, I'll be 30 wks at my next one. But every hospital could be different

Answer

My provider has only done one other urinalysis since my first appt because I thought I had a UTI. Otherwise I don't routinely have them. There's no reason to order the labs unless there are symptoms/issues. If you have a normal, uncomplicated pregnancy then you don't need unnecessary labs done.
