It depends on your dr and how your pregnancy is progressing. I had a confirmation scan at 6wks, a dating scan at 10wks, morphology scan at 18wks, then my dr ordered a 3D second opinion scan at 19wks, ordered a wellbeing 3D scan at 24wks, a growth scan at 26wks, another growth scan at 28wks, and ordered a 3D growth and wellbeing scan at almost 32wks. I think that will be my last one tho as I'm scheduled for csection at 36wks.

I have had 8 and am 34 weeks but my pregnacy has been high risk, so that's why. My sis in law who has had 3 kids all healthy normal pregnacy only has gotten two every pregnacy.

I had one at my first visit at 8 weeks (dating scan), then one at 18 weeks for anatomy scan, then one at 32 weeks. But at 32 weeks, I started taking madicine for GD so now I have an Ultrasound every week.

Additionally, I paid for a once-per-month ultrasound package at a boutique. I have 2 more of those to redeem.

I've had 3 so far, my initial one at 10 weeks, anatomy at 20 weeks & i had one at 28 weeks for growth measurements & I'll have one next week again for growth measurements which I'll be 33 weeks then. It really depends on your doctor as well as your insurance.
