Re: Has anyone seen a perinatologist?
Well, when they thought I had amniotic banding they sent me for a level II sono at a peri office. The perinatologist then looked over the scans. Based on that, maybe they're the dr's who check out the baby in-utero?? I'm not too sure...![]()

Isn't that a high risk OBGYN?
I saw one every other week once I was diagnosed with GD in my pregnancy. They basically just looked over my blood sugar levels and results from sono's and non stress when I got them there.

I think the specialist I see is a perinatologist. He is basically an obstetrician who specializes in pregnancies with some risk (gestational diabetes or other medical conditions the mother might have, or conditions that may be noted in the developing baby).
