Last scan? At 20weeks is that normal?

Question

I had my last scan at 20 weeks and 2Days and the sonographer told me that I have no more scans? Surely I must be able to have another one that was 10 weeks ago now and I am now 30 weeks 1Day 🤷‍♀️💭is this normal? I want to see my baby again 😩😻 and know that everything is well!!
Why do I not have any more? There was no concerns to growth or anything but surely they should do another scan to be 100% ? 
Would love if I could get some advice from somebody
Thanks 
Picture taken today at 30weeks 1Day 😁

Answer

I've had quite a few US. The first for dating, then another at 12 weeks, then 20 for the anatomy, then 24 because we couldn't get a good view of her head before, now I have another at 32 checking for last minute abnormalities, and my OB said we may do another around her due date to check position. I'm low risk, I think they just like cashing in. I don't mind though because I don't pay much out of pocket for them.

Answer

my midwife only does one at 20 weeks unless the due date is in question or the 20 week showed something

Answer

I'm in the UK and yeah 20 weeks is the last scan for a normal healthy pregnancy. With my daughter 20weeks was the last one 
But because I have to have a planned section with this one I have to have growth scans so have had more at 28, will at 32 and 36 weeks.

Answer

Answer

I am in Pennsylvania, and I asked my OB yesterday at my appointment when my last scan would be (my first 2 babies, back in V.T., they did 3 or more scans, the last being around 32 weeks or so). The OB told me that my anatomy scan was my last scan, back around 22 weeks. I am 30 weeks 3 days now. I asked her why, since I am high risk due to losing a child unexpectedly after 15 weeks, and since they have no idea her size or her development since then. She said they don't because PA insurance does not usually cover 3 ultrasounds. 
 I am a bit concerned. Even with all the pain I have been experiencing, and her movement changes, they just say they will hook me up to a monitor to check her heart beat. 
Sorry but that is not easing my mind at all. 
 People told me to go find an elective ultrasound place and pay out of pocket. Not too much of a problem, but I don't think they would be checking her fluid and development.

Answer

My doctor does one after 30 weeks but the ultrasound techs said that wasn't very common. I think it depends on the doctor. It sucks but some doctors figure why waste government money (I live in Canada) on unnecessary ultrasounds just so we get to see our baby. Maybe ask at your next prenatal check up??

Answer

My doctor only does an 8 week and 20 week. That's it unless something is wrong! They can get all of the information they need based on other diagnostics, and don't want to waste your money (most insurance companies don't cover many).
