Question is unclear: But 15 weeks is early to detect problems with the baby, which is why we wait until about 20 weeks to do a "level 2" ultrasound exam to screen for problems. This is simply a very careful and thorough ultrasound exam. At 15 weeks a positive exam is significant, a negative exam is not.
