12 week appt

Did you get a ultrasound at your 12 week? I guess being at the fertility clinic I got spoiled and had an ultrasound at 6 weeks and used to having one. I had a 8 week appointment with my ob and now today I am having my 12 week (really 13 week because I had to r/s).

Re: 12 week appt

  • If you elected to do the NT scan/ultrascreen you will.  Otherwise, probably not. It really depends on your doctor's policy though. Some only do one, some do them at every appointment and some are in between.

    I had one at 6.5 to check viability, 8.5 b/c I asked for one, 12.5 at my NT scan, and one today at 20.5.  I won't have another unless they are concerned about something.

    GL and I hope you DO get one today :)

  • I didn't with my DD, but I also elected not to do the NT scan with her. I only had one ultrasound at 21 weeks.

    I did with my DS. I actually had several with him, but I had quite a bit of spotting, etc. So, I think they were just being cautious.

  • Since I had complications I have one at 6 wk, 8 wk, & 9 wk.  Then I did not have another one until 20 wks.
  • Pretty much what Kendra said. I get extra because of my history of m/c, otherwise I would only get the anatomy scan at 20 weeks (unless I opted for the NT scan). It not only depends on your doctor, but also your insurance coverage.

  • Same, I did because of my m/c history and b/c she couldn't find the heart beat with the doppler. I had another at 14 weeks due to a complication, but didn't have another until the a/s at 20 weeks.

  • Ditto PP.  My OB does them at every appointment and since I have had m/c and fluid loss with previous pregnancies I get them every 2 weeks but I know that isn't standard.

    I hope you get one though!!

  • We got one at 8w, 12w nt scan, 20w and usually around 32-34w with both E and I. 

    I also got one at 10w with Ian right before we told family because I was freaking out.
