How many scans will be done during pregnancy?

Question

I just had my first scan and am wondering what the typical schedule is for scans during pregnancy. How many scans are usually recommended throughout the whole nine months?

I am still planning to conceive, so reading this is so helpful. I had no idea we need to do so many scans!

Kiran Raju · Answer

I had about 5 scans in total during my pregnancy. The 5th-month anomaly scan was my absolute favorite because I got to see my baby's tiny hands and feet clearly.

Humare chote se town me toh doctor ne 3 scans hi kiye thae poore time me. Sab sahi raha, tum bilkul chinta mat karo aur achi diet lo.

In our times, we hardly had one scan, but nowadays doctors do them to check baby's growth carefully. Just follow your doctor's words, eat well, and stay happy, beta.

Usually there are around 4 to 5 main scans, like dating, NT, anomaly, and growth scans. Follow your doctor's advice on this, and for minor discomforts, simple home remedies work best.

Normally it is 4 to 5 scans if everything is smooth. The 12-week NT scan and the 20-week anomaly scan are the most crucial ones. Your gynac will guide you.

My delivery was completely normal and I had around 4 standard scans. Don't worry at all, your doctor will let you know when each one is due.
