My gynac has already asked for like 3 scans and im only in 2nd trimester. I keep wondering if so many ultrasounds are okay for the baby or am i overthinking it. how many did u all end up doing through the whole pregnancy?
I used to worry about doing too many scans honestly. My gynac reassured me that the ones she advised were completely safe and important. That calmed me down, so trust your doctors plan.
Ultrasounds done as your doctor advises are considered safe, theres no harm in the routine ones. Most have around 3 to 4 in a normal pregnancy, more if theres a medical reason. Just follow what your gynac recommends, they wont do extra without need.
My doc said the scans they schedule, like the dating, anomaly and growth scans, are all safe and necessary. They dont expose baby to radiation like xrays. She said extra non-medical ones arent needed, so just stick to the recommended schedule.
