Just curious how many ultrasounds/synograms you all are getting or have gotten in the past. I had one at 9 weeks, the NT scan at 12 weeks, a genetics scan at 17 weeks, an anatomy scan at 20 weeks, then a growth scan sometime after that and of insurance approves it another scan late in pregnancy to estimate weight and size before birth.
I don't know this seems like a lot. I know my insurance covers 3 ultrasounds and then the doctor needs to request any past that. Just curious what everyone else's experiences are with this...
Re: How many ultrasounds/synograms...?
1st pregnancy: m/c began 1/12/09 d&c 1/13/09 8wks. Baby stopped growing at about 6wks.
Delaney: Born 10/15/09
Gavin: Born 4/8/11
Baby #3: due July 10, 2014
My OB does three, as long as everything goes smoothly during pregnancy and there are no complications. 12 weeks, 18 weeks and then somewhere around 28-32 weeks (I don't remember the week they said #3 is supposed to happen.) Hoping that my 18 week u/s this week shows that everything is good so we can continue with that schedule!
Not sure what the plan is after the AS, I assume nothing unless indicated.

Guess that's 5!
Eta: I should add that my doctor is super laid back. We live in a small town and I don't think he has the patient load like some do.
With this one, I've *technically* had 2, but the first was about 25 seconds to estimate how far along I was, as well as establish that there was a heartbeat. Second one was about 2 minutes long, and it was to check the heartbeat (my doc doesn't use Doppler)
After that I am not sure on the office procedure.
