How often?

Question

Is there studies or doctors that say there’s an actual such thing as “too many” ultrasounds. I don’t want to harm my baby. I have my 12 week ultrasound May3rd but i did want to go to a private ultrasound place to find out the gender before 20 weeks if my office doesn’t do the sneak peak

Answer

I've read some studies on theories about "too many". Having 3 though (12 weeks, gender reveal, 20 weeks) is a normal amount.

Answer

I’m going in for my eight week ultrasound today because I was actually curious about that too since once I hit week 14 I’m gonna be getting them weekly. I’ll ask and I’ll keep you updated😊

Answer

My OB told me there's no harm from ultrasounds but she only gave the standard 3 because doing it more often can lead to anxiety. "My baby was a week ahead last week but now it only 3days ahead" kind of thinking. Personally in okay with waiting because it makes each time that much more special

Answer

I probably had between 8-10 ultrasounds... I don’t think there’s such a thing as too many

Answer

I don’t think so. I’m 6w3d and have had two already. I get another one next week on Wednesday and then one the following Tuesday after that. So I’ll be about 8w2d having had 4 ultrasounds by then. These are all done by my actual OB, so I’m sure she wouldn’t recommend them if they were to cause harm.☺️

Answer

I get ultrasounds weekly because of complications. I don’t think my doctors would risk more issues if they added ultrasounds were harmful.

Answer

My last ultrasound was back in February, we were told we wouldn’t have any more afterwards. So now we get to wait until the baby’s due to see her again.

Answer

I've had 6 throughout my entire pregnancy. I don't think there's any harm in it.
