how many ultrasounds?

I'm 30 weeks pregnant tomorrow. Baby #2 . Just trying to figure out if I'm going to have another ultrasound before delivery? Possibly get an estimated weight? I had my last one at 19 weeks.

My last one was at 23weeks when we found out the sex, and I'm almost 35weeks and my OB said we wouldn't need to get another done unless something seems wrong.

It depends if they are nessesary.  I wasn't considered high risk but got a false positive for I forget which test so I got a lot more ultrasounds than the regular pregnant person. Towards the end of my pregnancy I went to fetal monitoring 2 times a week and would get ultrasounds in those too to measure baby and fluid around him.

No they won't unless ur over due or high risk and they want to make sure baby is ok.
