I have my first scan next week and honestly im a little nervous, never done one before. Can someone explain how the whole ultrasound thing works, is it on the tummy or inside? Thoda idea chahiye so I know what to expect.
I was so scared that the gel would be cold or the waves would harm the baby, but it's just harmless sound waves. Don't worry, it's the best part of the checkup.
I completely understand if you're feeling nervous about the scans. It's just simple sound waves to check the baby's growth, and it's actually very comforting to see them.
In our family, elders say not to do too many scans, but doctor explained that ultrasound uses safe sound waves, not radiation. It is totally safe for the baby.
It uses sound waves to show your baby on a screen, and hearing that first heartbeat is the most emotional moment ever. It's completely safe and painless.
