Does Kaiser do any routine u/s beyond 20 weeks?

Board hog today! Stick out tongue

Someone asked on my birth month board if we'll have an u/s after 20 weeks...I realized I don't expect to, but don't know what is routinely done with Kaiser.  I imagine if baby's head can be felt (i.e. no need to check position, etc) there isn't necessarily a reason to, but maybe I'm wrong...

Kaiser ladies, did you have a routine post-20 week u/s?

  • I think each Kaiser does things a little differently, but I had one around 36 weeks to confirm her position. I'm spacing now on whether I had one after that.

  • Unless there are concerns about baby's or mother's health or questions about baby's position, they won't do another one.

    I'm not sure this is true across the board. They had no reason for concern with me but still did one...unless maybe there was another reason I wasn't aware of?

    Ditto this

    I did have one again yesterday to make sure there was enough fluids for the baby. Both were done in the medical office - not with the super machines in radiology (like with the anatomy scan).

  • I only had another during my NST after DD#1's due date came and went.  But that was it!
  • They didn't do this with my first, but with my 2nd they did an u/s at 36/37 weeks to check if head down.
  • I got one at 36 weeks to check for position.
  • With both of my girls I had a positioning ultrasound at about 37 weeks.

    I had some inbetween 20 and 37 weels too but that was for other reasons.

  • I had one done at 28 weeks, but I think only because I was concerned about my baby. I was having really bad cramps and the baby was not moving around. I think they might do another at 35/36 weeks just to check her position.
