Im in my 2nd month and my gynac has only mentioned a few scans so far. Just curious how many we actually need start to end, my MIL keeps saying too many scans are not good. Can someone who has delivered share how many they got done?
My gynac scheduled the main ones, an early dating scan, the NT scan around 11 to 13 weeks, the anomaly scan around 20 weeks and a growth scan later. So roughly 3 to 4 key ones, plus extras if needed. Your doctor decides based on how things go.
I'm a first timer and got confused how many scans are normal. So around 3 to 4 main ones? Good to know, I kept thinking I was doing too few or too many.
There are a few standard scans and they do add to the cost, so I planned for them in advance. I asked the hospital upfront which ones are essential. Knowing the schedule helped me budget month by month.
