did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
he requested the day off, but didn't get it. I'm a little scared about going alone in case there is no heartbeat again.....

Re: did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
I have my first one on Monday and DH might not come because of work also. I really want him there because for some reason I am very nervous (my paranoia coming into to play that something will go wrong).

Re: did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
My DH came with me for our first child but with this one I went alone. I actually preferred being alone this way I could get all the attention from the doctor LOL. Plus I could ask all the questions I wanted w/o hubby interupting :)
ETA - does the office have night hours? If so can you make it for then this way he can come?

Re: did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
DH didn't go to my first visit at 8 weeks. He went my 2nd visit (12 weeks) to hear the heartbeat and to my ultrasound at 20 weeks.
Although I know you probably want to see the Dr. ASAP for peace of mind, is there any way to reschedule to evening or weekend appt?

My DH did not come to the first DR appt and ultrasound. He is coming for my 2nd ultrasound though.

Re: did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
My Dh didn't go with me to my first - I really didn't think they were going to do anything, and my DH was working overtime. Well, thats the day I found out I was having twins, I was a little disappointed that he wasn't right there, but I got over it and raced right over to his job to tell him.

My DH wasn't able to come to my first appointment. I hope he can come to the next one.
Everything will be fine

Re: did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
Awwww, I know how you feel, I really do! DH didn't come to my first few Dr. visits as well, and I was scared as hell because of the miscarriage right before. But, my Dr.'s never tried to hear the heartbeat until after we had our first ultrasound because they didn't want to freak us out because early in the pregnancy it can be difficult to detect the heartbeat. Instead, they just took my blood early on to make sure my HCG levels were rising appropriately, and because you don't get the results until later, it wasn't really necessary for him to be there when they took the blood. He did go to all the ultrasounds, especially the first because we were so anxious to see if everything was ok this time... if DH can't make it to your first appointment, can you have a good friend or relative come with you?

Re: did anyone elses DH miss the first DR appt?
Can't he take a half day or just a few hours off? Why does he need the whole day?
I wouldn't worry though - you'll be okay and everything is going to be fine!
