[IP] pregnancy and retinopathy

["safieh saib" <email @ redacted>]

For those of you who have been pregnant, how often did you get your eyes 
checked during pregnancy? Did you have retinopathy prior to pregnancy? I 
have had my eyes checked twice so far- at 3 1/2 months and at 6 months. I 
don't have retinopathy, although I know that it can progress if one has it 
when one is pregnant. I'm supposed to go back a few weeks before my due date 
to get them checked once again and then 3 months after delivery. I'm just 
wondering what others have been told to do, and what experiences you have 
had. If you didn't have retinopathy prior to pregnancy, did you develop it 
during pregnancy?

Thanks,
Safieh
