Im 7 weeks and my gynac hasnt scheduled any scan yet, just gave me some tests. So when does the first scan actually happen na? First time mom here, dont know the timeline.
I am also planning my pregnancy and was researching this exact thing. It seems there are about 3-4 major scans in a normal pregnancy. I can't wait to experience that first ultrasound moment myself.
I can only share my own schedule—I had my first scan at 8 weeks to check the heartbeat. After that, my doctor called me for scans at 12 weeks, 20 weeks, and then one final growth scan in my 8th month.
Yes! The first scan is around 7-8 weeks to check the heartbeat ❤️. Then you have the NT scan around 12 weeks, and the big anomaly scan around 20 weeks. It's so exciting to see the baby! 🥰
Since we did IVF, we had an early scan at 6 weeks for reassurance, but typically, the first dating scan is at 7-8 weeks. Then the crucial NT scan is at 11-13 weeks, and the anomaly scan at 18-20 weeks. It can be anxiety-inducing, but stay strong, dear.
I know waiting for scans can make you so incredibly anxious, I used to count down the days. The first one is around 8 weeks to confirm the heartbeat, and then the big ones are at 12 and 20 weeks. Try to stay calm, seeing the baby makes it all worth it.
Prepare your calendar because you'll feel like a celebrity with all the photoshoot bookings for your uterus! 😜 Usually, the first dating scan is around 7-8 weeks, followed by the major ones at 12 and 20 weeks.
Look, the main scans are: Dating scan (7-8 weeks), NT scan (11-13 weeks), Anomaly scan (19-21 weeks), and a growth scan in the 3rd trimester. Don't skip any of these, they are crucial to check baby's development.
