First time pregnant and bit confused, my gynac has told me 2-3 scans till now but my MIL keeps saying do less, baby ko nuksan hota hai. How many scans did you all actually do through full pregnancy? wanna know whats normal.
Usually, there are 4-5 standard scans, but honestly, it totally depends on your specific health. Some high-risk cases might need more monitoring. Your gynac is the best person to decide this, so just trust their schedule.
From my own experience, about 4 or 5 scans are very standard to check the baby's growth. Each scan was such an emotional moment for me, seeing my little one grow! Just go by what your doctor recommends for your body.
My MIL was saying in their time they had barely one scan, but nowadays we need to be careful. I followed my doctor's advice and had 5 scans throughout my pregnancy. It's always best to do what the gynac says for safety.
I had around 4 to 5 scans during my full term, and everything went smoothly. Your doctor will schedule them at the right times, usually the dating scan, NT scan, anomaly scan, and growth scan. Just stay positive, eat healthy, and let the doctor guide you.
Please only go by your gynac's advice on this because every pregnancy is different. Some might need more scans if there's any complication, and some need fewer. Never skip any scan that your doctor recommends, safety is first.
