I am trying to plan for all the doctor's appointments co pays while pregnant.... about how many appointments do you have during pregnancy? From beginning to end?
Thanks!

Thousands. No, I'm kidding. But you do go to quite a few. At first it's about once a month. When you get to about 7 months you'll start going twice a week, then at about 81/2 to 9 months you'll start going once a week. It's not so bad. Ask your doctor's office to be sure. They'll be able to answer these questions better than us.

Well, definately once a month.... then you'll go every other week towards the end, maybe 2 or 3 times, then every week in the last month. So, around 15-17 times. Also depending on how far along you were when you started going to the dr. Most people find out around 6-8 of pregnancy... Hope that helps!

1x monthly for 6 months, then about 2 more spaced every 3 weeks, then about 2 every 2 weeks, then weekly. (About 12+ appointments, and possibly also an extra ultra sound one)
However my doctors office has this thing they call "global billing" where i paid a copay at the first appointment and then thats the only one. They lump all the visits together onto one bill after the baby is born and send that to my insurance.

Usually 1 a month for the first 7 months, 2 a month for month #8, and 1 a week for the last month. My insurance did the whole thing as one lump sum, though. It's possible that yours will, too. All the appointments, the ultrasounds, the birth, and the postpartem visits are usually considered parts of the whole, since you need all of them.

So far I've been to 5 office visits and 3 ultrasound appointments (I'm 31 weeks prego). I anticipate that I'll be going to about 6 more appointments until I give birth. I guess it would depend on special circumstances of your pregnancy (if you're high risk you might need to go more). My pregnancy has been normal so far (knock on wood).

I would say around 15! It is every 4 weeks starting at about the 8th week and then increases to once a week in the last month. (It may even increase to every other week in the 8th month too depending on the pregnancy and doctor)

It depends. I started out going once a month and then early in the pregnancy I started going to one clinic every two weeks and my regular clinic once a month. Also, I didn't have to pay any co-pays. Good luck with your pregnancy!

Once every six weeks, and more often the closer you are. then the extra one for the ultra sound. That would be about 10-15 appts.
