Does everyones OB measure their belly at all appointments ??

Mine has only measured my belly once
( with the tape)....Maybe its because I have had a bazillion sonograms with the previa, its not necessary since they have known the baby's size all along ? Just curious Chat Icon

ETA: I'm 34 weeks Chat Icon

I can't remember when the doctor started doing this (maybe 28 weeks), but my belly is usually measured at each appointment.

I'm 16 weeks and haven't had my belly measured yet. Then again... like you, I had a ton of sonograms in the first trimester so they know how the baby is growing.
