When will I have my next ultrasound?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't had one since the genetic testing (17 weeks). I'm dying here. I want to see my LO.

A lot of healthy pregnancies just have 1 at about 20 weeks or so...

Unless there is a problem that needs to be monitored, you may not have another one... most people don't. Ultrasounds are not just for fun so that you can look at your child, but are for diagnostic purposes. Get that through your head.

I only got 1 at 18.5 weeks and that's all I get!

Are you serious? That's why they do ultrasounds? Thank you so much DR. I would have never know! Your a lifesaver.

Unless a problem arises, you probably won't have another u/s. 

I had to get one a couple of weeks ago because LO had a huge growth spurt and is measuring really big.  I was pretty darn disappointed too, because she's too big to really know what you're looking at on the screen.  Couldn't get any good pictures out of that u/s.

You probably won't.  And only your Ob can really answer this question, not us.

I'd recommend asking your doctor instead of asking us. Most people only get 1 unless it's medically necessary but every doctor is different and only yours can answer that question for you.

i don't get any more unless there is a medical concern.

You're kidding us with this question and all that punctuation, right?

I had a growth check at 33 weeks but I guess all Dr's are different.

This is probably a question for your doctor.  After my 18w u/s, he said everything looked good and unless a problem came up I wouldn't have another one.
