How frequently were you scheduled for ultrasounds while you were pregnant?

Question

During pregnancy, what are the recommended frequencies for ultrasound appointments and what is their purpose?

Answer

Generally there’s 3, the Nuchal Translucency, the Anatomy, and one closer to delivery to confirm positioning. Some may also perform an early scan for confirmation of pregnancy, and then any others would be very case by case:

Answer

Not sure about the rest of the world but in the UK we normally get 2. I’ve been having monthly scans, the most recent ones are just quick check ups and seeing her grow is amazing 🤩

Answer

It depends. I’m high risk for pre term labor and delivery so I have them every two weeks.

Answer

I’m a little nervous bc I wanted minimal ultrasounds . I have a dating one scheduled at 9 weeks, then a NIPT one to check for abnormalities at 11 weeks. Then I’ll have the 20 week anatomy scan. After that I’m probably going to decline anymore unless it’s needed at the very end of my pregnancy. Since I’m an older mom I know they’re going to want to give me more ultrasounds . When I was younger and pregnant with my first two they always would find one thing wrong and give me a million ultrasounds, it was so stressful! Both babies were healthy no issues. So all of it was unnecessary.

Answer

Depends on certain circumstances... with my first baby i only had 2 main scans and then a extra one for leaking waters but with my second baby i had a scan every 2 weeks from 28 weeks as i had gestational diabetes and baby was measuring small x
