A member asked:
Could someone please tell me how many ultrasounds are needed in a pregnancy? in which weeks these should be done? thank u so much.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A reasonable: Approach is an ultrasound around 20 weeks to look for any fetal or maternal problems and to estimate the date of delivery. This is often the only ultrasound an otherwise healthy expecting mother will have.
