My doctor has advised an ultrasound, but my family elders are saying it's not good to do too many USGs. Is it safe to have an ultrasound (USG) during pregnancy?
Yes, USG is completely safe during pregnancy as it uses sound waves, not harmful radiation. Your doctor will schedule them at specific times to monitor your baby's development properly.
I've had so many ultrasounds by now in my 3rd trimester that I've lost count! It's completely safe, and honestly, it's the only time you get to 'see' your baby before delivery.
I totally understand your anxiety, dear, but USG is completely safe. Seeing your little baby's heartbeat on the screen for the first time is the most beautiful feeling in the world.
