How often do you get ultrasounds ?

Question

I finally got to see my little baby & see( not hear 😭) their heartbeat. When I saw the NP, she told me that I would not have another one until about 20 weeks for my anatomy scan 🫤. How often will you all get to see your little one ?

Answer

For all of my pregnancies, the standard was 7 weeks (to determine that I was pregnant and corroborate the date), 12 weeks the “ultra screen”, then 20 weeks for the big scan.
I had an extra sonogram with my first, but I can’t remember what that was for. It was late in my pregnancy and might have been because I was gigantic.
I had many many sonograms with my second because I had gestational diabetes and because there was a problem (which resolved itself) with my baby’s stomach.

Answer

I am 11w4d and have had 3 ultrasounds, but only because I had a subchorionic hemorrhage at 7w6d. They monitored every week for 3wks, now I have a checkup on Aug 1, but no ultrasound. I'm unsure when they'll do another one. I'm guessing soon, because I have PCOS, Hashimoto’s, and metabolic syndrome so they'll need to make sure I'm not developing gestational diabetes.

Answer

I had one at 8 weeks and the last one will be 20 weeks. I wish we could get one in the third trimester also.

Answer

I’m extremely high risk so I get a bunch… but I also have a team of 4 Drs (obgyn, maternal fetal medicine, pregnancy cardiologist, and a pregnancy hematologist) so each does their own to make sure baby is good 😊

Answer

Answer

I get one every 2 weeks 😂 I had a miscarriage and am pregnant again and I just pay for private ultrasounds bc there’s no way I could wait for my doctors appointments.

Answer

I've had two miscarriages, so I got one at 6 weeks, 7 weeks and I'll be getting another at 9 weeks.

Answer

Mine is looking like every 4 weeks!

Answer

I usually get them at 7-8 weeks, 20 weeks and then around 37-38 weeks to check baby’s position. With my first baby I had an extra 2 I believe because I was earlier than we thought so I went back to see again and then at my 10 weeks appointment they couldn’t find the heartbeat on the Doppler so they did an ultrasound to make sure everything was fine, which it was. With my third I’m pregnant with now i has one at 7 weeks and I’m having another one at 11 weeks to check for genetic issues. Then I’m sure I’ll just have my regular 20 week and 38 weeks ones. I do pay for the elective ultrasounds a couple times throughout the pregnancy just cause it’s fun
