My test came positive just 2 days back and im like 5 weeks maybe. Should i go for scan now or wait thoda? Anyone know when is the right time to book the first ultrasound?
Aww, congrats first! For an early ultrasound, your doctor will usually suggest it to make sure everything's okay and confirm the dates. It's a nice way to see your little one for the first time. Just talk to your gynac, they'll know best.
Bhen, for early ultrasound, first thing is to meet your doctor. They'll write it for you. Just confirm the cost beforehand with the clinic or hospital, sometimes these early scans can be a bit expensive if not covered. Plan accordingly na.
Oh for an early scan, you just need to visit your gynac. They will give you a proper referral. Sometimes they wait till 8 weeks for a clearer picture, so don't be too worried if they ask you to wait a little. My doc did the same.
See, you just need to call your gynac's clinic and tell them you suspect pregnancy and want an early checkup. They will book you and guide you for the ultrasound. It's quite straightforward, don't overthink it.
Hey! Most doctors prefer to do an early scan, usually between 6-8 weeks, to confirm viability and check for ectopic. Just schedule your first appointment and tell them you want to confirm early. They'll do it.
