I go Oct 2 for my first prenatal visit and I should be about 8 weeks pregnant then and I was not sure if he would do an ultrasound just to make sure everything looks ok in there??

not likely, generally the first visit is for a pap test, and to listen to the baby heart beat. if there are any problems then they may due a ultrsound but not likely

Is your sister in-regulation intense danger? it somewhat is likely the reason she were given such extremely some ultrasounds. i'm intense danger and that i'm getting them 3 weeks or so for the reason that week 18. those with common pregnancies often get from a million-3 ultrasounds. this relies upon on your healthcare professional and your coverage. as far as healthcare professional visits. it really is mostly a million a month contained in the initiating. Then once each 2 weeks contained in the 0.33 trimester and through the superb component of the 0.33 trimester it really is per week. some docs have a somewhat diverse time table, yet maximum all will do something alongside those lines. only call your healthcare professional once you've any questions about precisely how they do issues.

It depends on your doctor. Most wait until you are 12 weeks but some do it on the very first visit just to make sure everything is going okay. They like to check the fluid and everything else in there. But don't worry if he doesn't do an ultrasound then he will do a physical exam. It will be okay.

Usually, doctors do a ultrasound at the five month mark where they can determine the sex, the measurements to assure the due date and so forth...unless you have problems beforehand which you did not state in your details, or if your insurance covers more than one ultrasound during your pregnancy, you will most likely go in for a routine visit, receive a bunch of panthlets about being a mom, coupons, samples, info on the baby inside you, prenatal vitamins and all that fun, simple stuff for the first time around. congratulations and take care of yourself...and trust me whenever you do have the ultrasound, its an amazing feeling!

Most likely it's going to depend on your doctor and insurance plan. My first visit was at 8ish weeks also and all they actually did was just take my history, some blood and go over information with me - I didn't see a doctor at all. A lot of times, they won't be able to tell much until about 12-16 weeks, so that's when the ultrasounds and checkups with doctors will begin. Congratulations! :)

i dont think he will--the first ultrasond is normally scheduled between 17-22 weeks into ur pregnancy. At ur first prenatal visit he will more likely check ur weight and do all the exams to make sure ur health is fine--they will check ur blood pressure and all that stuff--at about 10 weeks they may listen to the babys heart beat--but u still have about 12 weeks before they schedule the first ultrasound just because at that time u can also know the sex of the baby.

Unless they have a reason to think that you're high risk, they'll probably wait a month. At 8 weeks they can see the baby, but they can't tell so much if there's an abnormality, which is what ultrasounds are primarily for. They usually want to wait until it's developed more.

It really depends on your doctor and if you are at a high risk. Normally they will do one around 5 months, as I was told that is when they can see the sex of the baby. I had ultrasounds once a month, due to me being at a very high risk. No problems accrued. My little one is now healthy and happy. Oh yeah when you get your 5 month ultrasound, ask for the 4d. You will be able to see your baby in a new light. It is great!!! Congrats and good luck!!!

I think it depends on the doctor and what kind of equipment he or she has at their office. For my first child the doctor didn't do an ultrasound. However for this my second pregnancy I have a new doctor and she did do an ultrasound. Good Luck and congratulations on the little one.

I just went for my 6 weeks ultra sound, which most doctors require or at least suggest that you have at 6 weeks to make sure its not a tubal pregnancy or anything like that, after that he/she will tell when to come back. so yes, you shouldve have had an ultrasound at 6 weeks, just call and make an appt!! you can never go to the doctors too much!

i believe it depends on the doctor. But most of them do. Especially if your cycle is not stable, or you don't remember when was your last period. By ultrasound at this stage they can tell pretty precisely how far are you and predict your due date. It's vaginal ultrasound. You'll also probably will be able to hear the heartbeat already. Good luck. Congrats on pregnancy.
