Radhika Iyer · Answer

Honestly, 4 scans are standard: early viability, NT scan, anomaly scan, and growth scan. Don't worry, your doctor will guide you at the exact weeks.

Lavina Dutta · Answer

I am still learning about all this, but my sister said they only do about 3 to 4 scans. Seeing the baby on screen for the first time must feel so wonderful!

Bimla Iyengar · Answer

We had many extra scans early on due to our IVF journey, which was anxious but reassuring. Usually, it's just 3 or 4 scans, but always do what your doctor feels is safest for your peace of mind.

Deepa Rao · Answer

Scans can be quite expensive, especially at private diagnostic centers. We had around 4 routine scans, so it helps to budget for them and check if your hospital has package deals.

Heena Hada · Answer

I was actually wondering about this too! Is it safe to have multiple scans, or do doctors only do them when absolutely necessary?

Mihika Shetty · Answer

Haan na, usually 4 scans are more than enough for the whole nine months. The doctor will write them down when needed, so don't take stress.

Zoya Mondal · Answer

Because of my PCOS history, my doctor wanted to be extra cautious and did a couple of extra scans early on. In a standard pregnancy, it's generally just 3 or 4 major scans.

Usually, you will have about 3 to 4 routine scans—dating scan, NT scan, anomaly scan, and growth scan. However, your gynac might schedule more if they want to monitor anything specific.

Mrinalini Sachdeva · Answer

Yes, normally 3 to 4 scans are standard unless there are any complications.

Savita Mittal · Answer

Look, don't go getting scans done frequently just out of curiosity. Only get them when your doctor prescribes them, which is usually 3-4 times in a normal pregnancy.
