After all said and done 18-20. I'm delivering at 36 weeks or it would have been 8-10 more

Oh gosh, I can’t remember – a bunch. 2 before I was 6 weeks due to bleeding. NT scan, anatomy scan, several late term scans when LO was breech, another late-term scan for decreased movement, multiple ultrasounds at the pediatric cardiologist after LO’s heart defect was found.

So far I've had 3. One at 7w for dating, one at 8w because I had bleeding, 20w for our anatomy scan, and I gave a follow up at 28 weeks for a low lying placenta.

I had the two routine ones that are offered here at 12 and 20 weeks (we didn't find out the gender at it), then an extra one at 32 weeks to check the baby's kidneys since I have a problem with one of mine.

6: 6, 8, 12, 20, 21, and 32 weeks.
First two for dating/a little bleeding. NT scan, anatomy scan, another anatomy scan because DS didn't cooperate the first time, and the last one to check growth and positioning.

I had one almost every time I went! I know that's not the case for a lot of people! I had GD so I got even more scans when I went to the specialist.

3 so far, at 30w5d: nuchal translucency scan at 12w, anatomy scan at 19w, & optional 3D/4D at 27w (paid for out of pocket). My doc doesn't see a need for any additonal ultrasounds, as there are no complications and baby is already head down. I didn't need a dating since I knew the date of my LMP, and my periods were a regular 29 days.

3.... A dating at 9weeks, anatomy scan at 20, and a quick check up one at 36 weeks when movement slowed down

About a dozen maybe a few more with DD, due to PTL, ended up with an ultrasound at every NST (at least 2 per week for the last 4 weeks). So far only 4 with DS and I am 35 weeks, kind of going crazy these last few weeks with out all the extra ones like before. I am scheduled for one next week to check his size and that should be it.

Three, and I don't expect any more unless I start measuring off track. Dating scan at 6 weeks, NT at 11 weeks, anatomy scan at 20 weeks. It would normally have just been two- they don't normally do the 6-week dating scan but offered it to me because I'd had a previous miscarriage.

Four...I had two at 8 weeks because I had vanishing twin syndrome (could not tell at first ultrasound if there was two babies or not, so I had to have another), then my NT scan at 13 weeks and anatomy at 20!

Too many to remember. I had GD with both pregnancies, and my second pregnancy was monitored more heavily. I fell asleep a few times during my ultrasound appointments.

With ds1: Had an iui so we had 2 during the process, then one at 6 weeks and one at 10 weeks with the RE; at 17 weeks we had an elective gender ultrasound, then a 20 week anatomy scan and an ultrasound at 38 weeks while we tried to turn him from breech.
With the twins this time: 6 week scan (nothing seen), 8 week scan confirming twins, NT scan, anatomy scan, growth scan at 28 weeks and I think I will have at least 1-2 more growth scans before they get here.
Had I not had to use an RE, had a breech baby, or had twins, the typical number of ultrasounds at my practice is 3 at most: dating scan, optional NT scan, and anatomy scan.

So far 3 at 34 weeks, we did not do an NT scan. 8 weeks to confirm, anatomy scan at 20, one at 34w because of GD. I expect to have one more at 38 if baby does not come before that. She's measuring big, six lbs and 2 weeks ahead.

6 weeks because of spotting, 12 Nuchal, 16 week elective for gender, 20 week anatomy. Also at around 30 weeks they did a super quick check ( a minute or less) to make sure my fluid looked ok.

With DS, five (two dating scans because my first was too early, NT scan, anatomy scan, and growth ultrasound). This time I had two dating scans again because my dates were off a little, plus an extra because of spotting.

2: In Canada we generally only get 1 at 20 weeks if you are considered low risk. I had 2 because my cycles were off so my doctor wanted to do a dating ultrasound at 8 weeks.
