Hi risk ob gyn consultation

So I am going today for a consultation for a high risk ob gyn, what do they do here? Should I expect anything out of the ordinary?? My usual OBGYn wanted me to go to this to check up on things. I am on medication for epilepsy and I am just a little nervous for some reason...

Re: Hi risk ob gyn consultation

  • Due to your medication, my GUESS is just that it's a routine precautionary visit (again, just an uneducated guess). I have no advice though so I really just want to say good luck! I hope the appt goes well

    In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!

  • That sucks to be labeled. I'm sure it's just routine, but I'll keep my fingers crossed that you like the doc and everything goes smoothly.

  • I hope your appointment goes well. My guess would also be that your medication/epilepsy would put you at high risk. Update us after your appointment! Good luck!

  • You might want to talk to @pennstated912, she's over on GPM frequently and can probably give you some advice or just chat experiences (I believe she also has epilepsy? She has a link to her blog in her siggy).

    I hope it goes well!

  • Appointment went great. She is happy with the medication I am on and just said I will probably have to up the dose when I get into the 2nd trimester. Whenever that happens. ;) Also said that we should be okay and should be able to get pregnant okay. So hopefully now that we are trying AF will decide to not show up sometime soon. Thanks girls for your thoughts. xoxo
