First consultant appointment tomorrow

[Emilyjane11]

Hi ladies,

Seeing my consultant for the first time tomorrow. Im high risk because my bmi is 35 (my hospital cut off is 35) im pressuming they will do weight, blood pressure ect? It says it can last two hours and im a bit nervous.

Anyone share their experiences?

Thanks

I went for mine at 20 weeks ish IIRC. She took my BP, gave me the spiel about BMI and healthy eating (yawn), prescribed me baby aspirin, asked about health stuff, PCOS and meds, gave me a check up on my nethers due to some bleeding issues, listened to the heartbeat and told me I'd be having growth scans once a month for the 3rd trimester. Also answered a bunch of my questions and was generally quite lovely. Nothing to be afraid of
