Hi ladies

Just had my 24 week check up (although I'm 25) I had my urine checked , my blood pressure and we listened to her heart beat but she didn't check my weight . Now I know my bmi is high because they made a point of telling me when I first became pregnant but since then no one even mentions it ?
Just wondered if you'd all been weighed and said you were doing ok or if they aren't bothered in general ?

I was never weighed in my first pregnancy at all. They asked my weight at booking in but that was it. This time when I went to the doctor to tell them I was PG he weighed me, but then it has been the same as last time really x

I think we get weighed again near the end, from what i remember. My BMi is very high, 45! I was weighed at booking and referred for consultant led care. And I got referred for glucose tolerance test last time in case of mahoosive baby, however only had a four pounder in the end! Also last time I got scanned at 32 and 36 weeks cos they couldn't tell the size so easily through the fat! But thats about it. Oh yes consultant recommended early epidural as can take longer to put in on fatter people , in case of an emergency c section, which I did have in the end. Hope this helps not scares! xxx

I was only weighed at the beginning but I remember reading somewhere that they have a policy to monitor pg women's weight more closely to stop us becoming a burden on the NHS in later live (ffs)! Anyway as a third timer my next check is at 28 weeks so I'll let you know if they weigh me!
