My doc has already asked for 3 scans and im only in 2nd trimester. Bit of tension whether so many ultrasounds can affect the baby na. Anyone whose gynac did frequent scans, was it fine?
Arey bilkul safe hote hain, doctor bina vajah toh nahi likhenge na. I had almost 6 scans during my time because of low amniotic fluid. Don't worry, science has advanced so much now, and it's just to check if the baby is doing okay inside.
Scans are safe, but they can honestly drain your wallet if you keep going to private labs every month. I planned my scans carefully by discussing with my gynac about which ones are absolutely mandatory like NT and anomaly scans. If your pregnancy is normal, you don't need to pay for unnecessary extra ultrasounds.
Hey, don't stress too much about this! I had like 7 or 8 scans because of some minor issues, and my baby is absolutely perfectly fine. Doctors know exactly what they are doing, so just go for your regular checkups and enjoy seeing your little one on the screen.
I've been reading up on this because we are planning soon, and from what I understand, scans are super safe. But I still wonder, how many scans do doctors usually write down? Is it like a monthly thing or only during major milestones?
Ultrasounds use sound waves, not radiation, so they are completely safe for the baby. Doctors only suggest them when necessary to monitor baby's growth and fluid levels. It's always best to follow your gynecologist's advice on how many scans you actually need.
