Nervous

So ladies I'm 37wks and FTM. I have had all of my scheduled ultrasounds but this last doctors spot my doctor said we needed to schedule another one to check on some things. I am freaking out because my last one was last month... Is this normal, should I be worried? What could he possibly want to check? When I asked if everything was okay, he said yes but he seemed uneasy...

Same here, I was told I would only have two but have one scheduled for Friday (37 weeks, too!). Trust your doctor, mine wants another to see how big he is (we've been measuring two weeks ahead) and position. Nothing to worry about.

Look nothing is worse than having to do one every 3 weeks! They told me my baby was small and I have to be monitored with bi-weekly checkups as well. Lol. I'm sure your baby is fine. Don't worry!

Some doctors just like doing ultra sounds lol. Try to enjoy it and not stress. Your doctor may have just been having a rough day and was acting funny from that. Have to remember they are dealing with a ton of hormonal pregnant women all day lol.

Don't be worried. I had one at 10 weeks to see how far along I was and then my 20 week was suppose to be my last because that is all insurance would cover unless I had a medical problem. Well about 6 weeks ago they did a vaginal ultra sound to just check my cervix because I have been cramping my entire pregnancy just to make sure things were ok and they were. Now they are planning another one at my 37 week check next friday to see how big baby boy is, how he is turned, and just to check him. I'm actually excited about it to see what he will kinda look like and to see how big he is. They decided to do one because he was transverse for like 8 weeks and I was in pain from it. He is turned now but I haven't asked if he is head down.
