Just got my positive test, im a first time mom so totally clueless. Dont know kab pehla scan hota hai and how many in total. Pls share when you all went for your first one.
Haan, first dating scan to normally 7-8 weeks me hi ho jata hai to check everything is fine. Uske baad doctors custom schedule batate hain, so unse discuss karke hi dates fix karna, okay na?
Honestly, my brain was so foggy back then and now with a baby keeping me awake all night, I barely remember! But yes, you have to go for multiple scans like dating, NT, and anomaly scan as per your doc's advice, so don't miss any.
In my experience, the doctor will guide you exactly when to go. I had my first scan around the 8th week which showed the tiny heartbeat, and it was the most beautiful feeling, so just follow your doctor's schedule.
Please consult your doctor and get an early dating scan around 6 to 8 weeks to confirm the baby's heartbeat. Having gone through a miscarriage before, I know how anxious this wait can be, so definitely stay in close touch with your gynac.
Usually, the first dating scan is done around 7-8 weeks, then NT scan at 11-13 weeks, and the big anomaly scan around 18-20 weeks. My pregnancy tracker app was super helpful in reminding me about these dates, so u can download one to keep track!
