every 4 week ultrasounds just because I'm fat :0)

Yep they forced me into this too. Non complicated pregnancies, no GD.
They did eventually use the 'abnormalities' found on both of my children's morph scans as their excuse, but it was mainly for weight (which is what they told me).
I didn't mind too much. I had the scans, my kids grew perfectly I had uncomplicated relatively drug free (a little bit of gas) Vaginal births with no post partum complications. It was kind of good to 'stick it to the man' when they couldn't find anything wrong. It was all it felt like they were doing with me.... trying to find something wrong with me because someone of my size should not have such easy pregnancies and births.

If you really don't like the idea of so many scans, talk to them about it. Tell them that you'll have a scan every 8 weeks maybe? There's not alot to do to get OB's off your back... because all they know about every single overweight pregnant person is what is written in all their text books. We all get GD we all have High BP we all have c/s and all because of our weight because we are ridiculously unhealthy people who are a burden on the health care system and should not have gotten pregnant in the first place. I know it happens, but it would be nice if they could treat EVERYONE on a case by case basis.

I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy!!

omgoodness... every 4 weeks.. how absurd. I would be voicing my concerns to your OB and see if it can be changed to every 2 months or something. Ive never heard of anything like that.. unreal.
