Recommended: Most obs perform a high-resolution us between 18-20 weeks to rule out anomalies. It's a good time to screen the fetus, document placental location, and even check gender. We no longer "wait & see" when it comes to labor since there's an advantage to having the right equipment & personnel at delivery if an abnormality is present.
