Re: Midwife/OB office drama am I overreacting?
You're not overreacting at all -
I'd find an OB.
They didn't do the 12 week sono and NT scan? or 16 week bloodwork?

Midwife/OB office drama am I overreacting?
And yes, now that I talked to dh when I wasn't a pissed off mess, it was the CVS she mentioned at my 13 week. I haven't had any scan at all, only "belly checks" and the one sono at 7 weeks. Is this normal? Does anyone have a general "schedule" when things are supposed to happen? I feel so misinformed

phew!
Mine's much more abbreviated than this because they don't do growth sonos or early sonos at my OB's office.
8 w - 1st sono / dating baby / early pg bloodwork
12 w - NT sono
16 w - regular office visit w/ doppler and bloodwork for spina bifida
20 w - anatomy scan only (if no issues, no level II)
24 w - regular office visit w/ doppler
28 w - GD 1-hour test and regular office visit w/ doppler
32 w - regular office visit w/ doppler
34 w - regular office visit w/ doppler
36 w - regular office visit w/ doppler & internal check & group b strep swab
37 w - regular office visit w/ doppler & internal check
38 w - regular office visit w/ doppler & internal check
39 w - regular office visit w/ doppler & internal check
That's it. No sonos after 20 weeks unless there's complications. First pregnancy, they saw a spot on DD's heart at 20 weeks so they sent us to the perinatologist for a full level 2 sono at 21 weeks and they did a follow-up sono at the office at 28 weeks. This pregnancy, DS was breech so they did a sono at 34 weeks to see if he'd flipped. But otherwise, it's 20 weeks and done.
My OB usually induces at 40 or 40 1/2 weeks (41 the latest) if necessary.

Same. The only sonos I got were to confirm the pregnancy, an ultrascreen @ 12 weeks, and an anatomy scan at 20 weeks.
I'd like to point out to the OP that not all midwives are that out of sync with you. My midwife was very thorough and completely aware of my history throughout every appointment.

Re: Midwife/OB office drama am I overreacting?
The NT is totally optional so maybe they just don't do it? But its odd that they would recommend a CVS which is more invasive. Do you have an OB you used to see that you can call for a basic schedule of when they do things?
I had NT bloodwork at 10 w, scan as 12w, Anatomy scan at 22w.
