"SOGC recommends that ultrasound be used prudently and
that energy exposure be limited to the minimum that is
medically necessary."

Seriously? We all get u/s as often as our doctors tell us to. What was the point in you posting this?

OscarQ

Uh thanks?

"Although there have been no fetal abnormalities linked to

diagnostic ultrasound, it involves targeted energy exposure

to the fetus, and there remains a theoretical risk for subtle

effects on fetal development."

Theoretically my baby could come out with a forked tongue like that baby on "V".  I'll take my chances that won't happen.

What's the point of this?  MANY of us here are high risk, have suffered previous miscarriages,etc. and have extra U/S's based on our Dr's recommendations. We don't just run in and ask for extra U/S's cause we're "wh*re's" 

Also, I'm an adult who can research any potential risks of my medical treatment and make educated decisions.  Thanks for playing though.

u/s whore here, I think I am the one that used that term. 

I am getting an u/s as often as my dr tells me to (i.e lets me).

Why are you even posting on this board? Do you get your jollies by using "studies" as scare tactics on women who have gone through hell just to get pg? Get a life!

I know where you can put your FYI.

You're a douche.  I don't need your little clicky.  I do, however, need an MFM, which is whom I trust.  I'll gladly take all the u/s she gives me to make sure my boys are ok.
