Question

I am 10wks 5days with my second baby and I just got my second ultrasound yesterday. The first was when I was 6wks 4days to check how far along I was, and this one was to check for genetic testing! My next one will be when I'm around 18wks so they can check the gender! Some people say they only get ONE u/s when they are 20 wks?? That sounds crazy because how will they know if the baby is healthy before that?

Answer

I'm 11.4 and I've had a total of 5 ultrasounds. Going in for my next one at 13 weeks.

Answer

Thats what i was saying! My OB said it wasnt necessary to have one until 20 weeks so i wont get my first one until december 3rd ): but i asked if there was anyways to get one before then and she said i had to get a referral to go somewhere else but she just kept saying it wasnt necessary smh i still asked for the referral so i can get one sooner.

Answer

I am 12+4 and have had 1 at 10 weeks. I won't have another with my OB until 20 weeks unless it is "medically necessary". I may go to a private office for a gender scan around 15 weeks if it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

Answer

I have had 3 from the ob and one elective i am getting another next week

Answer

I've gotten 5 going on 6! The first two were for dating, then third was for my NT ultrasound but the baby was measuring behind so I had to go back, my fourth was for my real NT ultrasound, my fifth was an elective ultrasound to tell me the gender and then next week will be my sixth for my anatomy scan!

Answer

I got two at about 4 and 8 weeks for dating purposes, and haven't had any more. I'm 14 weeks. Every 2 weeks I get progesterone levels checked and every 4 I listen to the heartbeat. Idk What will happen any time in the future though, but I was expecting more ultrasounds too!

Answer

With my son, I got 8.
With the one I'm currently pregnant with, I got one at 4 weeks 6 days, and couldn't really see anything, then I got another one at 6 weeks 6 days, seen the heartbeat and heard it, my next one was at 9 weeks, where I got blood work done too, then I had one at 11 weeks 2 days cause I started gushing bright red blood. Found out I have a SCH, and everything is perfectly fine. My next ultrasound will be at 13 weeks 3 days, then another one at 17 weeks 3 days. I will continue to get an ultrasound once a month until I deliver my baby. Even if I wasn't high risk, my O.B does an ultrasound once a month for every patient she has.
