How often did you have a check up from 36weeks to 40?

Don't be too concerned, I am sure you & your bubba are both perfectly fine.
TBH, I find the weekly appts to be a PITA. Even my midwife said I am too healthy! lol. If I could have been on just fortnightly appts, I would have been much happier.

i dont think i will go weekly. im 36 weeks now and il go next week to see my GP. then an app at the hospital, but as long as everything is ok at those apps i doubt il go again till im 40 weeks. my GP said that is didnt need to goin as often as some as im so low risk. ithink it was ment to ever other week the last few months but ive only gone in once on her recomendation. i prefer not going in all the time, just to be poked around, but im sure it depends on the person! im sure you DD will be just fine! hope the appointment puts your mind at ease!....or you have her before your appointment, and ignore what your friend said, if she was so knowledgeable then you wouldnt need to go to the docs atall as she could just tell you whats going on

I would like to clarify that I went to the hospital at 36 and then I think 40, but in between I saw my GP weekly so, yes hosp visits the same as you, but under the shared care it was GP monthly till 32 odd weeks, then fortnightly till 36, then weekly. all he did was the doppler, measure and BP. So I recon so long as your bump has grown, you can feel plenty of movement and you dont have any headaches, you should be fine.

Usplus2 - I was weekly but everyone is different! If your Dr said that and you confirmed with the hospy then that's what it is for you. And if there was anything you were unsure about, I am sure you would have contacted them.

Also - your friend who said not to be surprised if there are problems tomorrow? Wowsers.

GL, I am sure everything will be 100% fine

I saw and will see my Ob weekly from 36 wks. That is just the way he prefers to do it.

[Heaven]

I go 36wks, then 38, then 40.

I was on weekly from nearly the start , never made it to 36 weeks though either time, but would have been twice weekly, but I don't do pregnancy very well, well my body doesn't
Normally with my OB it is weekly from 36 weeks
Wow Beckoes, I did't realise you were so close

I went at weeks 36 38 40 41

Went today and everything was all good in the end. Dr couldnt find the heartbeat for a while, but had a CTG done and she was there beating along. Not yet engaged, but measuring perfectly. After waiting with DS and DP for nearly 3 hours because they were short staffed I am really glad I wasnt weekly.

I've now got 1 week to go into labour naturally or they are breaking my waters, so fingers crossed for labour this weekend.
