I read so many posts on here about girls that have doctors that don't do a ultrasound at every…

I'm 28 weeks, won't see my baby again until he's born an haven't seen him since I was 20 weeks 😔 I wish my doctor did them every time I had an appointment

that's crazy! I've never heard of that until this app. is there a reason why you don't get a sono at every appointment? @torilorraine

A lot of it has to do with insurance. Most insurance only covers 2 unless there is a medical necessity. Not to mention I don't want to expose my baby for more ultra sound waves than what's necessary. I think a dating scan and an anatomy scan for a healthy normal pregnancy is just fine.

I thought you usually only got one perhaps in the beginning and one around 20 weeks.

They said at this point the baby is to big an will only see his face an it's not unnecessary to. My boyfriend an I are going to pay $175 to get a 3D-4D sonogram to see him one last time before he gets here in June! Ridiculous!!

I won't even get to see or hear my baby till 12weeks!! I was so disappointed when the nurse told me they don't usually do an ultrasound or try with the doppler till then.

My last pregnancy I had 4 and this current pregnancy I have had 2 & I'm only at 16 weeks. Wish my dr did them more often

too many unnecessary ultrasounds aren't good for the baby.

That would scare me! My insurance covers 1 every 4 weeks, and when I get closer I'll have one every two weeks, and then one every week...
