well, it would depend on if your doctor is like mine and just happens to be delivering a baby everytime I go in....so needless to say, my visits are usually about 2 hours long.

Once you actually get into the doctor things go very quickly. Mostly just checking blood pressure and asking how you feel. Assuming you don't sit in the waiting room for 30 minutes (and with an 8 am appointment you shouldn't) he should have plenty of time for both.

Once you do your general "consultation" visit and you talk to the doctor etc, your visits should be pretty brief.
They will weigh you, take urine sample to test of protein and sugar in the urine, most likely listen for baby heartbeat and talk to you about any concerns or problems you may be experiencing. Also take blood pressure reading.
You may need to do a urine culture or some blood work and if they haven't talked to you about it already, they may ask you if you are interested in the NEW 1st trimester screening for Downs.
Other than that...I think that's all you'll be doing.
Good Luck and Congratulations

Oh, honey, i'm so sorry. that is detrimental to would desire to circulate with the aid of that. various months in the past I had some thing very comparable take place. At my first time-honored circulate to, at around 12 weeks, i think of, they tried to apply the doppler to discover the heart beat. No success there, so as that they introduced interior the indoors ultrasound kit. there became my toddler, on the dimensions of a 9-week fetus, with out heartbeat. I were on Yaz when I have been given pregnant, and finished out the %. like frequent in the previous my era became due. while i became late, and commenced having some indications, i did no longer initiate the recent %.. besides, they had to furnish me 2 rounds of a drug referred to as Cytotec to bring about the miscarriage simply by fact at almost 15 weeks, I nevertheless hadn't even began recognizing. If I had to do it throughout lower back, i think of i'd have opted for a D&C truly, simply by fact up till a pair of month in the past, i became nevertheless cramping, bleeding, and having valuable HCG quants. A D&C would desire to have helped me stay away from all that. I did nevertheless cause them to do yet another ultrasound in the previous I took the Cytotec, to make valuable the toddler became certainly no longer conceivable. i could no longer have slept at evening if there became even a gamble. i wish this all is going right this moment for you, and which you will start to heal from it quickly. i'm so sorry on your loss.

Depending on how busy the office is... I would guess about 20 or so minutes. That's how long most of mine last. It depends on if they are going to do a sono or not....most likely since you just had one they wont unless something is wrong and you are having problems. Tell him to go with you and leave early if he has too. That's what I would tell my hubby.

My appointments don't take long at all, at most 25 minutes. They will just do the normal, urine test, measure your uterus, possibly listen for heartbeat... I think he will make it.
