I swear if I didn't have all these pregnancy apps and 2 kids already I wouldnt have a clue what was going on with my baby. My docs SUCK!!! My appts have literally been 1 appt every 4wks and all they do is check my vitals and baby's heartbeat. I haven't been checked to see if I've dilated or if my cervix has thinned out, I have only had 2 sonograms this whole pregnancy(no pics) I dont even know or have an estimate on how much my baby weighs... 😟😟😟 If my husband and I ever decide to have another baby I definitely WILL NOT use a military doc.
**(not tryna complain Im grateful i have healthcare for me and my kids but I just wish they did more. this is the 1st pregnancy where my husband is home with me(not deployed) and i just wanted this to be a more memorable experience)**
and i asked my doc why didnt i get any sono pics and she said u have to ask the ppl from radiology who do the anatomy scans for pics or they wont give u any...I was upset bc she shoulda told me that b4 the appt so i would know to ask. @theirmommy1416
i have an appt tuesday then one appt every week after that until i have the baby. im just so ready for this to be over. if my husband and i decide to have another baby im gonna ask for a refferal to a civilian doc. @theirmommy1416
you should be have biweekly app by now. with you being so close. something really doesn't sound right about that. especially not getting any pictures
i said the same thing!!! sometimes I really feel like its pointless to even go to these appts. 😟 I had one u/s done at 10weeks which was my 1st prenatal appt and another done at 20 which was like an anatomy u/s to make sure everything was developing properly and i found out what i was having. That's it. I see so many ladies on here getting u/s at every appt they go to. I spend more time waiting for the doc to call me to the exam room than i do the actual exam. They even space the appts out so far apart. I have 1 appt about every 4 weeks. And yes all they do is check my vitals check baby heart beat and measure my belly thats literally it! @theirmommy1416
that seems odd to only have 2 ultrasounds done the whole pregnancy. and only check the heartbeat
no problem
