Midwife appointments

How often should you see your mw?

Im really confused because the mother of my niece reckons she saw her mw once a week and she had her baby last April.

She said she heard the hb and everything before she had her 12 wk scan but i only saw my mw at 7 wks and she asked me to book another app when im 16 wks. So Im really confused. Should i be seeing my mw more often?

I have my scan tomorrow though so im really excited

I'm to see my MW once a month til i'm further on then it becomes weekly. Not sure how it is for everyone else.

I see my midwife for the first time tomorrow. I think it's once a month until closer to the birth... can't really remember. Anyways, I'm sure it's changed about 20 times in the last 2 years.... as everything pregnancy related normally does !!

I guess im just worrying about nothing.

My mw took all my bloods to test me against everything at 7 wks. So im sure if there were any concerns or problems she would had requested to see me before now.

Oh well i guess i will just have to wait till im 16wks to see her again.

According to my notes it's once a month till you get to 30 weeks, then it's 33 weeks and after that you see your midwife every 2 weeks till 38 or 39 weeks when you'll see her every week if not more till baby is born.

I see the midwife every month but if i have had any questions or worries i just book an appointment to see her in between. I think when your late on, 30+ weeks, you see her every week.

I see my OB once a month until I'm further along, than it's every 2 weeks, and closer to the due date it's every week.

no one see's thier midwife every week unless there are serios compications depending on wether or not this is your first u should have between 7-12 appts.

Im over 12 weeks and havent seen my MW at all! I wont see her for another couple of weeks when they take blood and I get my first scan!
Think it all depends where you live and if you are at risk etc, I dont think they're that bothered with me at all!
