i totally agree the only good thing thats come from my appointments is hearing bubys heartbeat..

my mw team is usless they forgot to do nearly every blood test and the information theyv'e given me so far is pointless..
i had to go into hospital the other night and the mw there told me the baby was rather small

but my mw never tells me how the baby is actually measuring up! grrrr

I've been having to go every two weeks since my 19 week scan cause of the tumor/cyst thingy. I think I start at every week pretty soon. Joy. It's a PITA, but...I get lots of scans so I'm happy!

Just know it's all for the health of your baby.

Totally agree with this, babys and mums health is whats important, and these appts are there to pick any problems up, could be the difference between life and death to be quite honest.

Yup, doctor's appointments are rather annoying, but it's to make sure mom and baby are doing okay. I don't mind going at all if it's keeping us safe
