Would you consider the 20 week anatomy scan medically necessary? Mine is scheduled for 2 hours from now and my sister has messaged me getting me all paranoid on if it's worth the risk to go.
There's only been one confirmed case in our county so far, but who really knows.
My scan isn't at a hospital, it's more in it's own separate building and I would think of it was too risky they would have cancelled it, right?
I just going to shower before, take my hand sanitizer and shower when I get home I guess.
No it’s your choice and it can cause more anxiety than anything so it’s whatever you wanna do you can always do a normal scan later and nothing is always accurate and it’s also for genetic testing in most cases for analysts even I received a pamphlet when I was told of it by my maternity doctors ссылка
I mean theres PLENTY of people who don't have any visits or ultrasounds AT ALL during pregnancy but I'd still go. They look at important stuff and as someone else said everything rn is a risk
To me if your dr hasnt canceled it then it important. Alot of them are canceling apts if they feel like it's okay to reschedule.
I think the 20 week is important because it's more than just anatomy. Its checking the baby out for defects. My OB isnt canceling dating, 12 week or 20 week because they are all pretty important appointments
With the virus caution, everything right now seems like a risk even picking up your mail can be a risk. Take the precautions and you will be fine ♥️♥️♥️
I wouldn't skip it. There's too many important things they look at. It's not like they're just looking at the gender. They're checking for any defects in important organs, your placenta, cervix. Everything basically.
I personally find it necessary because they will be looking at every detail of the baby. Things that could be missed on regular scans, If I skipped it i would be more paranoid if my baby is developing ok. If something is out of the ordinary they could be prepared and with my last an anatomy scan they noticed my partial placenta previa. Very worth it.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
So I just found out I'm pregnant with my second baby on Thursday and I told my mom on Friday after my fiance told his mom and dad and today I was talking with my mom and if baby is a boy I'm not going to have a baby shower but if it's a girl it's going to be a small baby shower and my mom told me that I can't have another baby shower that it's now how it works. So do I have a shower or not? Any advice?
I told my friend my mom wants to throw me a baby shower and write on the invite "monetary gifts only" and he told me that people aren't trying to pay for my "gas bill" I'm offended because a lot of money goes into a baby shower, and if you're gonna give me a 10$ blanket from Ross that I probably won't even use it's a waste. I rather use those 10$ for my honest company diaper subscription.
For an anatomy scan I would go. They measure and look for a lot of things during it
