I have my 3rd doc appt tomorrow morning. We are plannig on bringing The Boy because there is no preschool tomorrow. I'm kind of excited to see him hear the baby's heart beat for the first time.
Any one know of a way that i can prepare him for the appointment or have any experieance with taking their other children to their appts? |

Sorry don't have any advice as Robbie was much older when I was pregnant with Anthony, and still never came to any of my appointments I don't think. Good Luck though, and hope all goes well (I'm sure it will)

I'd sayto just make sure that your husband snuggles with him while you're getting the stuff done, and just tell him that mommy is ok. Just explain it all to him in a happy/smilie way. make it fun for him, eventhough it might be a little scary. The dr. might be able to help also. Good luck!!

Katy came to all my appts with Matt though she was a lot younger none of it freaked her out. SHe thought the heartbeat was the coolest thing and would help the dr. hold the dopler

Well, we are back and all went well. The Boy did fine and really liked hearing the heartbeat. I don't think I will bring him back tho, because The Dr. spent WAY more time playing with him then talking to ME! I didn't get my questions answered, and felt like a total afterthought! Oh well. The baby is fine. Heartrate, about 140!

I didn't have a kid with me and I still forgot to ask all of my 50 questions! So I eventually wrote it all down, poor doctor, had to listen to all of my crazy questions! Sorry, it brought back memories!
140....wow...maybe it's a girl! Glad things went well, can't wait to hear the next update! Ann -------------------- ~Ann~ Wife to Justin, Mommy to Cam

That really sucks that you didn't get your questions answered. Glad your little guy did well though
