Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

I have my 15 week appt on Tuesday with my MD. No ultrasound planned. It is in the evening so I was thinking my hubby would come, but I am just wondering, does DH go to all your MD visits? He wants to be involved, so it isn't forced, but I am just curious!

Thanks!

Mine does not go to all my visits, we work completely different schedules so its hard. He came to the first vist and to the Level II. Other than that, no.

Yes, I made him go to all the appointments. It may have been my body going through all the changes and tests but he had to witness it all since he was 1/2 the reason I was pregnant.

nope...he didn't go to the first one, but has gone to all the others. He'll be taking me to the 1 hr glucose test since I don't do well without eating or drinking.

Yep, he goes to them all. He gets upset if I accidentally make one for when he can't go- so I reschedule. Its very important to him.

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

I only had 1 so far and he was there, he plans on going to all of my appointments. It's something that's important to me right now.

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

DH goes to every single one...

He wont let me make an apt. outside of his schedule (which gets kinda rough considering I work around the corner and could just go on my break)

The next apt. is the 1st one hes not coming too...and knowing him he'll probably end up meeting me there...

I think its cute....but sometimes I just wanna say STAY HOME... j/kChat Icon

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

With our son Andrew, Rob went to EVERY appointment and drove my MD's nuts! He always had a list of questions!

This pregnancy he has missed 1 and I don't know if he plans to come to every appointment again, we'll see!

No but I never really asked him to. I know if I wanted him to he would but they are just so uneventful it just doesn't seem worth the hassle to me. He comes to any of the major ones which are usually just anything that gets an ultrasound.

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

So far my husband has been to all of my appointments - even the ones that aren't sonograms.

He is glad he went to my 15 week - because he got to hear the baby's heartbeat on dobbler and see how much i gained!!Chat Icon

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

My hubby came to all visits that had sonograms. We work opposite hours so it is kind of hard. When ever he wasn't working though he would come!

Mine tries to make it to all of them. But, sometimes it's hard. He missed my last sono & was upset by it. I have one tomorrow which I thought he was going to miss. But, he said told me that he's not missing it again.

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

DH came to my 1st visit & my triple screen to see the ultrasound. for just regular visits i don't see the point in him taking time off from work because so far they have been pretty uneventful. when i go for my 20 week sono he will come.

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

Its so very hard for my DH to make all my appointments, because his job is very demanding and he is new to his position..not to mention , logistically its a nightmare for us (we live in Westchester, my doc is here, I work in NYC, he works on LI)

He didn't come to my 1st appoitment , and he wont be able to make my 2nd . but I am bringing my Mom along for moral support

But for the "BIG SONOS" he is definitely going to tell his boss to stick it and be there Chat Icon

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

Mine has gone with me to all of them. Even though the appointments are very short, he loves listening to the baby's heart in every appointment.

Re: Do your hubbies go to all your MD visits?

My DH has only come to the ultrascreen and level II, it isnt easy for him to take all this time off of work, and I figured the other appointments are so fast that I would rather he saves his time for after the baby and stay home with us for a couple of weeks.

My doctor had me fast for my test.....

My hubby went to a few appointments in the beginning - now, I am pretty much on my own.
