Hey just wanted to check , i am currently in my 8th month and still get visits which are one month apart with Dr. Elsa.Is any of you going through this as in my last pregnanacy and from what i hear from every other pregnant lady is that from 7th month onwards your vists should be every two weeks and then weekly in the 9th month

I hope this is not because she is over booked ????

This is my 2nd baby with Dr. Elsa and I'm 37 weeks now. For both I went monthly up to 32 weeks, bi weekly for 34 and 36 weeks and after that weekly. But I have high BP so she wanted to put a few more towards the end than normal. I think it depends more on the patient needs than a specific schedule. <em>edited by lolabug on 10/10/2011</em>

I saw her for my twins, and she was on leave from something like 32 to 36 weeks, so I didn't see her (or anyone) during that time!

I see my Gynae every four weeks. See him again now at 35 weeks, then 37 and weekly after that.

Hmm from 36 weeks I went to fortnightly but then ds was born on the 38th week the day after I saw her. If I had still been carrying at 38 then she said we would go to weekly aptmts. Ed to add: as with jag, my pregnancy was easy, no complications so always 4-6 week check ups until I was 36wks. <em>edited by AussiePup on 10/10/2011</em>

i am currently 33weeks when I first started going to her my appt was every 5 weeks, then we went to every 4. There is a 3 week gap between my last and next appt which will be at 35 weeks then I will have my last one before my c-sec at 37 weeks. To be honest if she scheduled the last 3 any closer together I would have asked her If we could stretch them out a bit as I have no complications and it is my 3rd so am not too concerned. Thinking back to my other 2 I only went every 2 weeks after 34/36 weeks, but then again I have uncomplicated pregnancies.
