Hi, I'm 24 weeks pregnant & I want to know that how man times scans are suggested. I had done my scans on 6th, 8th, 16th & 20th week of Pregnancy. And my doc has told me to again go for scan in 25th week. I don't have any problems in my pregnancy. Please let me know that scan in 25th week is necessary or can I postpone it to any other week & will be any other scan after this or it will be the last one. Please help

hi doc, am 23 weeks pregnant & went for scanning, i was told that the fluid was to much, so it lead to having a premature baby & also that they could not detect the babies legs. Now my question is, is it possible to detect other parts of the babies body and fail to see the lower part. What could be the problem? pliz help

monisha, that doesnt mean it's pregnancy 'scams.' it is normally always recommended to do an amnio after 35 bec chances of down syndrome dramatically increase. of course, there are some greedy doctors. my doctor told me there was no need to do an amnio after she checked all the markers in the regular scan. i was 34.

sometimes, it is pregnancy scams. i had my second child over 35, and the doc insisted i do an amino when there was no indication that anything was wrong. till i checked with my gynac who delivered my first baby ( at the ripe age of 33) who told me what to look out for in the triple marker test and amino was not needed.

dear prathima, after 8mts of trials to get pregnant i had a urine test confirmation on 17th jul2008(my last menustral date is on 11/06/2008) that i'm pregnant.but on 22nd jul 2008 i had spotting and advised by my gynic to go for ultrasound, i.e exactly on 42nd day the report says, no intrauterine or extra uterine gestational sac and later my gynic said of course there is a formation but not in the right shape,so she asked me to terminate the preg by taking 2 vaginal tab. but the news came to both of us as a shock so went to another gynic the next day for second opinion she asked me to " wait and watch approach".but not advised to take bed rest,i came to know only now after reading the column in indian parenting. but later on 25th jul my usual menustral cycle started(between the two days i had only white discharge).and doc didn't give me any proper reason for this miscarriage. note: my pre-pregnancy test of vaginal scanning shows no trouble my partner has 65million count per cubic and he has 60% abnormal forms.he din't take any pills to incrrease the count before i could conceive. now my doubts are, 1.is the miscarriage happened because of not taking enough bed rest? 2.should i go for any test for the genetic abnormalities? 3.when i can plan for the next pregnancy? 4.is the miscarriage is due to 60% abnormal forms? 5.is it possible for the sonography to show the correct formation on the 42nd day itself? please reply and solve all my doubts and confusions ,i'm not depressed i don't want to do any other mistakes for my next conception coz it's a very precious loss for us. please do help me in clearing the doubts. --
