Anyone else going through this?

Question

My doc hasn't really checked me I feel like everytime I've had an appoitment as of late he just asks me if anything is new or anything wrong and then just kind of shoos me out the door🤔 btw I'm 31 weeks. Anyone else's doc like this or is this normal around this time? It's my first child so obv I don't know what to expect :/

Answer

Yup, me 🙋🏼 I go in, I pee, get my BP and weight checked, wait around for like 30 minutes for her to come in, measure my belly and listen to baby's heartbeat. Then it's, cool see you in 2 weeks... 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think at 36 weeks I get swabbed and a tdap vaccine. Then after that it's my last US. I hope at some point we'll talk about birth plan and she'll check dilation.

Answer

I'm in & out in 10 minutes... doctor checks the heart beat & asks if I have questions. And it's only every 4 weeks. 
This works for me. I don't have questions or want to doctor to be trying to find something...

Answer

Yup, totally normal. You'll start getting checked at 36 weeks. Before that, they won't want to risk the possibility of infection.

Answer

I'm 31 weeks with twins and have been doing weekly appointments for a while now. That's pretty much the same thing I go through every week. Pee in a cup, BP check, weight check, look for heartbeats, measure stomach and then for she'll check my BP logs and what my blood sugars are every week since I have gestational diabetes. So I think this is pretty normal for most OB's.

Answer

I only do urine test, fundal height and doppler until 36 weeks.

Answer

Same here. Until I got gestational diabetes 😭
