Ok, I really should know this considering this is my third baby, but I just can't remember! I go in on Tuesday (I'll be 28wks 5 days) for my sugar drink test....so then, 4 weeks after that would be 32 weeks. Then every two weeks from then? Already? I know, they'll tell me at my appt. but I want to know now! :)

With Dd I only made it to one of the 2 week visits....she was born a month early, and with Ds I only made 2 of them...he was born at 38 weeks. That really makes me realize how quickly things are going. Hopefully this baby doesn't go past 40 weeks..I've gotten spoiled with the early birds.

This pregnancy is flying by!!!! Anyone else feel the same way?

I think it's usually at 32 weeks. For me, I'm going every 2 weeks now (went at 27 weeks, will go Monday which is 29 weeks, so on) ... then I go every week starting at 34 weeks. The schedule is a little different for me since Jake was early - they want to keep a closer watch on things I guess.

I started every 2wks at 28wks, then start every week at 36wks. It was the same w/ Bethany...and I'm going to the same birth center.

I just had an appt on Wednesday and made all my appts through December 2nd..my EDD is December 4th.

My next appt is at 29 weeks, and starting with week 31 it will be every 2 weeks until the 9th month, and then it will be every week.

Minnie mouse, you had me confused there for a second....until I realized the Bethany you were referring to was your Dd. :)

I will go monthly until I am 36 weeks and then weekly OR every other week after that unless I feel the need to see her more for some reason.

I had a midwife appt last week on the 16th (29 weeks), and now all my appts are 2 weeks apart, so I go back on September 29th.

I had my 28 week appointment today, will have one at 32 weeks, and then every 2 weeks after that.

This is the way my midwife does it too

Mine does at 28 weeks - then every 2 weeks after - until the end --
