Consultant appointments

Hi ladies! I have a consultant appointment at 32 weeks, I’ve never had consultant appointments with any of my other pregnancies (I was booked in for 1 at 36+4 with my youngest but she came before then) what is the appointment about?

My pregnancy was consultant led as I have hemoglobin type c. This just to do with my red blood cells carry oxygen around my body doesn’t affect pregnancy but it’s a medical condition that can cause issues after birth. A consultant appointment they basically go over why ur pregnancy is consultant led and if anything will effect you after giving birth and u can ask any questions? They also take ur blood pressure and u have to do a urine sample

My last pregnancy in January my little girl wasn’t growing, she was 5lbs 5 on a growth scan at 36+2. She was born that night weighing 4lbs 12 and I developed pe x

Ahhhh that must be why! Well ask plenty of questions at your appointments as I didn’t with mine so I misunderstood some bits after my first appointment

I had low PAPP-A levels with my prev pregnancy so my son had a low birthweight. I'm automatically consultant led this pregnancy because of that. If i remember the appt was just so the consultant could discuss your scans/results so far and talk about things like induction if it's necessary x
