If you're having twins, how often do you see your OB?

I saw my OB at 9w, 12w, 16w, 18w and he now wants to see me every 2 weeks for the remainder of my pregnancy. Just wondering if this was typical...

I am pretty sure that is what I did. I was also seeing a high risk weekly so my every 2 week appts may have started a little later.

I didn't have kids then so it wasn't bad but I am sure it gets tricky with your ds. I am being monitored every 2 days right now and it is sooooo hard!

Yes that's the thing... I'm a SAHM so I will be dragging him to every appointment with me! My OB mentioned doing non stress tests on both babies frequently and that is soooo time consuming. I guess I shouldn't complain bc I get to check on the little ones often! Good thing we have good insurance lol.

When I had my twins, I saw my OB monthly until 26 weeks, then every 2 weeks. But I went to the hospital monthly for sonos so we always knew how the babies were. Around 32 weeks I went to the hospital every 2 weeks for sonos. At 35 weeks I had an NST on the babies. Only had it once but it drove me nuts. They couldn't get both heartbeats at the same time for the full 5 minutes. One kept moving, then the other, etc. I think I was there over 2 hours. Everything was fine. I delivered at 37w3d.
