Did anyone see hair on their ultrasound but have a nearly bald baby?

Question

We got an ultrasound done at 28 weeks and the lady said he's got a lot of hair! I was super surprised because me and hubby were both nearly bald babies! Is it possible that our baby will still come out nearly bald because he will lose this hair before birth? Just curious!

Answer

It's no way to see a hair on u/s. Even on 3d/4d. Even on a pretty late stage.

Answer

My midwife says it's impossible to see hair as the ultrasound picks up flesh and obviously hair isn't flesh.  I have also asked the different techs who've done my ultrasounds throughout and they all say the same thing that they've never known to see hair on an ultrasound.

Answer

My husband and I were both bald at birth and our daughter was born with a full head of hair. I would think sono tech knows what she's looking at.

Answer

I saw hair on an ultrasound at 30 weeks, my so and I both had a lot of hair so I'm expecting her too. Then we went back at 31 and idk if I wasn't paying attention but I didn't see any??? And I didn't see any on the 3D so we'll see 😁

Answer

Sorry I try to reply to a post and I think I might have accidently deleted the whole thread. But my tech has been in this field for 22 years and is known as one of the best in our region. Yesterday on my U/S she did point out hair that you could clearly see. I think of they see hair then your baby will have hair after born.

Answer

My high risk doctor whose been doing this 43 years says you can see it if you're smart enough to look for it. I trust him.
