How many ultrasounds?

Question

We found out at 7 weeks we are expecting twins!! We had an ultrasound done then, I was just wondering how often other Moms have gotten ultrasounds with twins. I know they do the 20 week anatomy scan but didn't know if they would be doing more since there are two? Thanks for any help!

Answer

My dr had to do bedside ultrasounds every time I went in because they had trouble distinguishing separate heartbeats. Then they did the anatomy scan and I was told that I would get one at my next 2 appointments and when I start going for my every two week appointments (which start after my next appointment) they will do one once a month, but will probably still do a bedside ultrasound during the other checkups. So there will be quite a few. Also I guess I should say there is no issues that they are seeing with the babies and my pregnancy has been completely normal.

Answer

I had one at 8+6, then another at 12+6 for nuchal testing, my next is 19-20 weeks for anatomy... Then every 4 weeks after 20 weeks.. So 24, 28, 32, and 36 weeks

Answer

I had a lot of ultrasounds. I know for sure one at 6 weeks and one at 12 weeks and one around 20 weeks and then after that when I started going to my high risk doctor I got at least one a month.

Answer

22 weeks with mo/di girls. I had an 8 week to confirm and find out twins. Then one at 13 weeks to confirm number placentas and verify membranes. Then after 16 weeks its been  every two weeks for us. Tech told me today had they been di/di it would only be monthly. So it really just depends on what type you have and if there are complications.

Answer

I've been getting them every 4 weeks since the beginning and I'll be 27 weeks tomorrow. Not sure if they are going to be more frequent like my dr appointments are now.

Answer

When I was early on in the pregnancy I got scans once every 4 weeks up until about 22 weeks. Then it went to 2 weeks. Now I'm weekly since in past 32 weeks.

Answer

I had one every two weeks. But I'm 37 yrs old, so a little high risk. I alternated between my Perinatologist and my OB.

Answer

The first trimester I had them every 2 weeks then it went down to every 4 weeks now I get one every week and have been since about 30 weeks. There will be a lot of scans. Mine are di/di and I have GD so that may impact the frequency.

Answer

I had one every 3 weeks with my doctor and every 4 Weeks with a specialist

Answer

I got them every month, and then it switched to every 2 weeks. I'm 37 weeks and 3 days now and I just had my last one.
