What is an elective ultrasound?

@sincere329, Okay!

it was elective

15+2

Ohhhhh okay!! Yeah I'll just ask tomorrow!!

I found out at 14w5days at an elective ultrasound

@sincere329, I'm not sure what my insurance actually covers but I've already had 2. One at 5 weeks and one at 8. But my doctor has his own equipment so he will sometimes do something for you like use the Doppler or give you an ultrasound and not send it to insurance. So I have no idea what he's gonna do for me tomorrow.

Oh wow that's crazy.. I know my insurance on cover 4 ultrasounds, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 20 weeks and 37 weeks! My doctors office sucks so I ask questions about everything because they would never tell me as well😒

I know !! Thank goodness for this app

@brandylemonds15, Okay! I just feel like there there is so much knowledge and so many questions and I will never get all the answers!

Umm I think 30 let me find the chart thingy I was using

@brandylemonds15, How many weeks are you when you hit your third trimester?

I totally understand the wait is horrible !! And then you hit your 3rd trimester and your just sitting there waiting for your due date it's enough to drive a pregnant woman crazy 😀

@sincere329, They never told me when I was going to get another ultrasound. So I have no idea.

@brandylemonds15, I'm pretty sure I'll find out in three weeks if not tomorrow. I just don't know if I can wait three weeks! haha

I've heard 2 weeks , but I'm sure if you ask they'll look at babies privates at your ultrasound

I was originally supposed to find out at 20 weeks but I asked them when my blood work came back. If you are getting an ultrasound at your 19 week appt then most likely they'll ask if you want to know the sex.

@mommy2kamarii, I definitely will! I'm bursting at the seams!

@brandylemonds15, Do you know how long that test would take to come back?

Yes definitely a chance, just make sure you ask the ultrasound lady to see if she can tell

I went in for my anatomy scan and asked the tech if she could look and it be accurate she told me she would try but sometimes they won't even look that early . But you can always get a text like harmony done and I think that one you can have done as early as 10 weeks

@mommy2kamarii, I go back tomorrow and I will be 16 weeks on Saturday. Do you think there is any chance I could find out tomorrow?

I was 21 or 22 weeks when I found out, I would've found out at 16weeks tho but my baby was sitting up at the bottom of my placenta

@sincere329, I have a feeling I won't find out until my 19 week app. Would they look if I asked them to?

18 weeks with ultrasound, but 3D ultrasounds you can find out so much sooner!

18 weeks through the panaroma test

@brandylemonds15, Do they tell you beforehand? My doctor never mentioned it but I will be 16 weeks at my next app.

@loveeelyyyx3, That's so exciting! when do you go back?

I found out at 15 weeks thru ultrasound

they did my blood work at 12 weeks but I get the results when I go back to the doctors
