I really don’t think people get it. I got asked how many ultrasounds I was going to have this pregnancy. And to be honest it’s more than I would like to have. Dating scan was yesterday, NT scan is in three weeks and starting at 16 weeks I’ll have monthly ultrasounds to measure my Cervix. Apparently I’m ungrateful and lucky. 🙄 There is nothing lucky about having to constantly worry about how long you’ll stay pregnant for.

Same here, people would say why am I at the doctors so much and be jealous. It’s not my fault that every doctor is different. I get two appointments every month and starting at 8 months every 2 weeks & at 9 months every week. It’s just my OB policy 🙌🏽
People are driving me nuts. Like if they want an extra ultrasound, pay for an elective scan.
@februarymomx2, exactly that’s all they have to do honestly.
@makeupmomplustwo_, I’ve done that. 🤷🏼♀️ Early gender scan, and two 3D/4D scans.
Don't forget about the cerclage at 14 weeks and the injections until 36 weeks. Please oh please, tell us how truly lucky you are 🤦
@snarfyk, oh no, my OB already plans on following this pregnancy along with MFM. I wouldn’t leave Dr.Birnbaum. He came in the middle of the night to meet me in the ER. He is wonderful. Thank you for your advice, and the warning about the appointment and questions,
@februarymomx2 Always better to be prepared than not.
People always told me it was "so exciting" and I was "lucky" that I got an ultrasound at every single appointment I went to during my pregnancy. Yes it was exciting but not the circumstances as to why I had one every time. Some people don't get it. And its not all exciting its also terrifying not knowing sometimes.
It’s nice to get extra pictures, but then I think about the long term effects of all these ultrasounds, what does it mean for me, for my little tiny baby.
@_guesswho, nope. I should be “thankful” because I’m “lucky” she also stated that they would catch it early this time. Little did she know it was caught as early as it could be considered concerning.
@_guesswho, seriously so sick of people.
I only got 3 in my first couple pregnancy because I wasn't high risk or anything. After losing my daughter I had several with my baby girl. I liked seeing her alot but I was constantly on edge. Felt like my baby wasn't even safe inside me like they say they are. I had those NT scans every apt.
My first I had two extra growth scans due to her being small, but her growth stayed on track luckily. It’s just scarier remember why I have all these extra ultrasounds scheduled.
I had more than most too and while I was excited to have each scan a part of me was scared I was going to get bad news each time.
I agree. People that have healthy normal pregnancies don’t always get it.
The worst for me is my daughters heart was beating, she was growing and moving up until she was born. So having to have my Cervix measured monthly is going to be so so stressful. And it’s not like they’re going to spend much time looking at my baby. The extra ultrasounds are all for cervical length
@februarymomx2, I can’t even imagine that extra stress. You and your sweet baby are in my prayers
It's not really there business how many you get. They havnt been where you have they don't know. I had several with my daughter to. I get its it's kinda cool that you get to see baby alot but not why. I'm guessing this came from someone that never lost.
@februarymomx2 ohh okay that makes a very busy and stressful pregnancy.. but you got this don't let ppl get to you. It's hard 2 out of 3 times iv gone to the first ob apt iv been told my baby won't make it. When I had my daugher every apt was a overload of emotions and fear.
@monkeysmommax2, I’m just trying to enjoy everyday that I am pregnant in hopes that it won’t be the last.
Baby's weight..?
How much did your LO weigh at your last ultrasound & how many weeks were you?
how many of you are lucky enough to have your SO at all of your appointments, or at least most of them? my hubby has only been to 2 ultrasounds, no appointments, idk how I feel about it, a little upset I guess....
Idk why I have this incredible fear that I'm going to miscarry. everything is going great I even saw the baby's heartbeat in my ultrasound last week. how can I stop worrying about it?
Will I get another ultrasound before she is born ? I'm 31 weeks .. I have only had 2 ultrasounds 😔
UPDATE: Hey lovely ladies! Figured I would stop by to give y'all a quick update! I am 12 weeks pregnant today! We had a scan at 8 weeks and everything was perfect. I have also been able to hear my sweeties heartbeat since 8w5d! My next ultrasound is next Thursday at 13 weeks! We are also very excited to be announcing our pregnancy to everyone on Fathers day! & my oh my how those gorgeous babies of yours have grown!! Enjoy it ladies they grow so fast❤
