Re: Question about DH

I think DH will be there for all if he can. He's all excited about going to them. Thankfully his job is really flexible and our Dr's office is 5 min from our house.

Re: Question about DH

So far, every one. Between my regular OB and high risk, I have an apt almost every week, so I'm not sure how long it will last....but right now every sono is a GINORMOUS deal for both of us. By month 6-7 im not so sure he will think soChat Icon

Re: Question about DH

Only the first one, NT scan at 12 weeks, the 20 week sono and growth sono, but we have a 1 year old he has to watch while im at these appointments, so I'll cut him some slack! Chat Icon

Re: Question about DH

DH only comes to the big ones. I don't need him there when they just check my weight and heartbeat or draw blood. I think it would be wasting his time.

Re: Question about DH

DH works in the city so he can only make appts if he takes off a full day of work. So he's been to only 1 so far (the first appt. when the doc confirmed everything). Otherwise I've been going myself or my mom or MIL come with me. I don't think it's a big deal him not coming, I'd rather him not lose a day of work just for a short appt. Although he is taking off tomorrow for my sonogram appt.

Re: Question about DH

He's come to every one so far (i think we've had about 4 sono's so far) but for my next one he's not going to because we discussed it and he doesn't need to take the time off
he'll come for important ones though Chat Icon

Re: Question about DH

When I was pregnant with DD, he came to the 1st one, Level II, an emergency one I had around 30w when I was bleeding, and another towards the end. oh and he also came to the 3 hr glucose test because I was BORED!
This time, he has only come to the 1st appt so far. I dont really want him to take off work for a quick pee in a cup, belly check appt. He HAD to work for the Level II which was fine, he was disappointed but he has no flexibility in his schedule at this point. He probably wont come to any others.

Re: Question about DH

Wow, I can't believe how many people's DH's go to every apt! Mine was doing this in the beginning but we quickly realized it was really pointless for him to rush from work just to watch me get my bp/weight checked, pee and a cup and be asked "So, do you have any questions". He tried to come to my 12 week sono but got lost and missed the apt and he attended the 20 wk sono. For some reason I don't mind that he doesn't go. Trying to schedule evening apts and him rushing from work seems like more trouble than it's worth. If there were any problems though, I know he'd be there in a heartbeat.

Re: Question about DH

the 1st time he came to almost all of them - up until the very end when I had to go once a week on Friday mornings - not at all convenient for him -

This time, just the important ones. -

Re: Question about DH

He has been to all excpet the 24 week one. And he was really upset he missed it Chat Icon . But in all fairness, DH owns his own business so he has the ability to leave work whenever he wants.

Re: Question about DH

Only came to the 1st appointment to hear the heartbeat and the anatomy scan. He MAY come to the final sono but probably not.

I don't feel like it's necessary for him to be there. JMO.

Re: Question about DH

He has come to every single one with me... well except one appt bc he couldn't get out of work. but he was bummed about it.

other than that one appt he missed... he's been to all of them. and he's in the room with me for everything that goes on.

He's probably going to continue to come to every single appt with me from here on out. He wants to be as much of a part of this as he can be.

Re: Question about DH

I make my appointments at night, so he can come to all of them. He missed one, but it was right after my appendectomy and I just needed to be squeezed in to make sure Babylicious was ok.

ETA: he just saw what a pap smear looks like at our last visit. He was so skeeved!! I wasn't looking at him, so I don't know if he looked, but he probably did and he's probably scarred!

Re: Question about DH

Re: Question about DH

He has come to all, except for one. I had to change my dr. at 9 weeks. The dr. let me hear the heartbeat and DH missed it :( He hasn't missed one since!

Re: Question about DH

DH has been to every appointment with the exception of the last one...the doctor's office rescheduled me for an earlier time that same day, so I had my mom meet me because she was dying to come.

Re: Question about DH

So far he's come to all Drs appointments...not lab appointments tho.

He doesn't have a 9-5 type job though, so we have been lucky with this.
