Blood work at every appointment?

ann89 · Mar 4th, 2012, 15:42 PM

I was wondering how many people get blood work every appointment? There's one dr. In our town that I know of that takes blood work every appointment. But mine doesn't.

I only had it done once so far at my very first appointment. Everything was a ok, so not sure if that's why they haven't checked again or if they just don't. I'm 20 weeks

For the first few appointments I had blood work done every single time. (appointment at 12 weeks, 14, 16, 18) After 18 weeks not so much, just have to go in a week for my glucose test during week 25-26.

My next blood work should also be for my glucose test. My sister when she was in Georgia she got her blood work done every appointment. And theres a dr. here too that take everyones blood work everytime.. I just thought it was intresting.

I Have had blood work at every visit but I don't think that it was intentional. It just kinda worked out that way.

I've had blood work done 3 times, but that's only because the lab screwed up my blood work and said I was RH positive instead of negative. Good thing I know I'm negative!

I would hate to frequently have blood taken...I nearly fainted last time because I hate needles so much. I think I only have to do it one more time though.
