No ultrasound??????

Question

I had an ultrasound at 8 weeks and tomorrow I have an appointment which I will be 13 weeks but I am not getting an ultrasound. Is that normal?

Answer

Yep. Generally there's only 2 ultrasounds done in pregnant. The first is done at your very first appointment around 8 weeks and the second is usually between 18 and 20 for the anatomy scan. If you end up having complications or are having multiples or high risk pregnancy than there's more but if it's a healthy singletons pregnancy just 2 usually

Answer

Guess it depends on where you are. 
In the UK you don't get a scan  until 12 weeks, unless you pay private for an early one.

Answer

Ive always had 3. But they're quick and not thorough. 8-9 weeks as to verify and figure out a due date. 12-13 weeks to do measurements to test for things such as Down syndrome, and 18-22 weeks, for an anatomy scan. The rest of the pregnancy is just spent checking heart beats. I always pay out of pocket for the 3D scan, so I get another around 30 weeks.

Answer

I’m in England and we only get two. For us it’s one at around 12 weeks and one and around 20 weeks with check ups with the midwife in between. I personally don’t think that’s enough scans though and have booked in privately too. I had one at 6 weeks, my normal 12 weeks one and have another booked in for 15weeks so far.

Answer

Yes it’s normal.

Answer

I believe generally you get two ultrasounds. They could not find the heartbeat with the dopler last appointment so they went ahead and did an US to make sure everything was okay. It turns out I have an anterior placenta that is blocking the HB.
