reached third trimester Posted: 05-22-08 14:35pm
Hey everyone,
I'm OFFICIALLY in my 3rd trimester now.
YIPPEE!! Guess some call that the down
hill slope from here on out. Anyway I was
wondering normally do I get another
ultrasound in the 3rd trimester? So far
I've had one each trimester and wouldn't
mind getting another one. Just curious.
Hope everyone's doing good. TTYL

i think they will only do another u/s if
there is a condern with the baby or your
health.
thats what my doctor told me, but things
may be different for different places.
he also said that if everything is going
smoothly, they wont do any other
ultrasounds, but you would have one when
your in labour to make sure the baby is in
the right position.

Congrats!! The third trimester usually
sucks, lol. You're getting bigger, you pee
every 15 minutes, and the wait is WAY TOO
LONG, lol.
Ask your doctor how many ultrasounds they
do. Every place is different I know my
doctor only did one routinely, but they
normally do one at 22wks and 28wks.
Because I had signs of pre-eclampsia, they
did another one at 37wks.
