First pregnancy so im clueless about the scan schedule. My doc did one early but didnt really explain when the next ones come. Roughly at which weeks do they usually do them?
When I was pregnant and staying with my parents, my mother was very keen on all the tests. My gynac gave me a schedule. The first one was early, around 6-8 weeks to confirm, then one around 12 weeks, and the big anomaly scan around 20 weeks. Just follow what your doctor says, they know best.
Ultrasounds are so exciting, right? Getting to see your little one! 🥰 Usually, you have one to confirm pregnancy around 6-8 weeks, then the NT scan around 11-14 weeks, and the detailed anomaly scan at 18-22 weeks. Your doc will make a proper schedule for you! ✨
Arre, your gynac will tell you when to go for ultrasounds. Don't stress too much about the exact timings! Usually, there's one early on to confirm, then one mid-way to check everything, and maybe one closer to the end. Just follow your doctor's appointments, that's enough.
Yeah, I'm also wondering about this! I just had my first one at 8 weeks. What about the next one? My doctor just said to wait for her call. Is it normal to have like, 3-4 main ones throughout the whole pregnancy? It feels like a lot but also reassuring.
Basically, there are standard ultrasounds. First is to confirm viability, 6-8 weeks. Second is Nuchal Translucency, 11-14 weeks, for screening. Third is the most important, anomaly scan, 18-22 weeks, where they check all organs. After that, your doctor might recommend more based on your health or baby's growth. Just go as per doc's advice.
