Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

No, only my ultrasounds. My DH would never be able to make all my appointments. We work completely different schedules. Plus, I see no need in him coming with me unless there is a need.
It's especially hard now that we already have a DS and have to find someone to watch him.

Wow! Your DH are all so good. I actually don't know anyones husbands that have come to all their OB appointments.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

If he can make it to the OB appt, he comes. But I make sure he can come to all of the sonos. He hasn't missed any appts yet but he'll probably miss my 16w appt this week due to work. I try to make the appts later in the day but it doesn't always work out.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Sono appts yes, but OB appts, no!

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Yes, he goes to every one with me.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Sonos yes regular appointments he comes if he is able to but if he is working far away i tell him not to worry. I have my 16 week app on wed and he is coming if he is working in the city.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

For my 1st DS, DH came to nearly all my appts!

For my 2nd, very few. I am a SAHM so I made some appts during the day, and alot of hte times it made more sense for DH to stay with our older DS if I did have a night appt!

I think DH probably only went to 5 appts total for DS#2

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

For our son, he came to every appointment. We did not have that many sonos though (after graduating from the RE).

For the twins, so far he has come to every ob/gyn appointment and every sono. They have been much more often already though and I'm not sure that he will come to all of the ob appointments. Just this month, I've had/have:

ob/gyn appointment: 10-6 at 10:20am
sono at radiology: 10-14 @ 3:15 pm
sono at radiology: 10-27 @ 3:00 pm
ob/gyn appointment: 10-31 at 4:00 pm

It's crazy and I'm only 18 weeks!!!

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

nah. he comes to all the ultrasounds. but its really hard for him to get out of work so i am just so happy when he can make the important ones. hes not missing too much at the others i feel anyway. 90% is just waiting

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

With our first he came to all of the appointments up until 20w and then didn't come to any of the monthlies after that.

With this baby I've only had 2 appts. so far (I'm 14w) and he only came to the 1st...I told him he can skip the next one and just come to the 20w scan. I want to bring my parents to the next sono

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Yes he does. One of the reasons I switched doctors was because I wanted one that had later hours so he could come to them.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

No, just the appt's that I know there will be a sono and the first appt. It's easier for me to schedule my appt's during the day since I'm a SAHM. My dh works long hours and commutes to the city so scheduling around him would be too difficult.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Yes, He Comes to every one. He insists on doing so.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Yes. He enjoys coming and I like having someone to keep me company in the waiting room. When my appointments start coming every 2 weeks and then every week I don't know if he'll be able to make every one. Right now I schedule them early and he goes into work a little late. He usually has questions too and we both talk with the doctor.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

No- DH has only come to the 20 week sono, with DD. Oh, and he came to the first appt too.

Last time I think he only came to one or two, but he came to all the sonos.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

No. Only the sonos. My DH works in NJ and my doc is in the city so he would need to take a half day for every appointment.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Yes, he has come to every appt. with me.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

Im hoping DH goes to all of mine but, if he cant make it then he'll just have to miss it.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

DH comes with me to every appointment. I like to have him there bc he is an important part of this pregnancy and he likes to be involved. He usually has a lot of questions too. If your DH needs to take off from work to go with you, then I don't think it's necessary. My DH is home by 5 so it's easy for us.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

DH came to all of my appts with me...I think he missed maybe 1.
We had a sono at every single appt though...not high risk or anything - just what my dr. does. So we'd see the baby at every appt. I was able to make late 7:30pm appts though so it was never an issue with him missing work. Had I not gotten late appts or had we not seen the baby on sono at every appt...I don't think he would have come.

Re: Does your DH go to every appt. with you?

DH will come to my ultrasound appt's and I'm ok with that. It's hard for him to get away from work as it is.
