A member asked:

Can you tell me how to stay sane. what will they say and do at my first pregnancy scan?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depending on term.: Usually, the first scan is to determine pregnancy itself. Depending what is the term, different things can be said; at 11-14 weeks they already see nuchal translucency thickness,, which allows to suggest chromosome anomalies. When it is more (about 17 weeks) you might find out about the gender of the fetus. If earlier, mostly for gross abnormalities and heart beat. 20weeks - for fetal anatomy,.
