Obgyn concern

I just had my 20 week ultra sound and was told that it would be my last. I feel like that's not right at all!? I was told she would check the heart rate at my appointments but from not until she comes I feel like she needs to be checked on. My first was a still born at 23 weeks my second came full term and she's aware of this. She also told me she doesn't want me gaining more then 20 pounds which I get but I was told by my previous ob in Oregon that it's old news. Should I bring up the ultrasound thing at my next appointment next week?

I was also told the same thing. The standard is dating scan & 20 week anatomy, and growth scans after if there's a reason for it. I had scans at 12, 20, 24, 28, 32 & was scheduled for 36 weeks(I ended up being induced at 36+0 so I didn't get that scan) but typically unless there's a concern, they don't do any additional scans after your anatomy.

I went through IVF (so my story is a bit different), but since 9 weeks (which is when you typically leave the IVF clinic & start visiting the OB-GYN), I have had an appointment every month. Not only do I go to my OB-GYN, but I also go to an Advanced Fetal Medicine specialist (because of IVF & my age), so I see doctors 2x/month at this point (oh, btw - I’m 20 weeks). My doctor (OB-GYN) was very clear with me that after 28 weeks, I’ll be coming 2x/month and then after 36 weeks I’ll be in every week!!! If i were in your situation, i would get a 2nd opinion from another OB-GYN just to understand the standard of care! It doesn’t sound right to me either!!
