It is a detailed scan that checks if the baby’s heart is forming and beating properly.
Doctors suggest it when they want to make sure the baby’s heart is healthy.
It is a scan done by moving a small device on your stomach.
You can see your baby on the screen — heartbeat, movements, and growth.
It does NOT hurt.
You can help prevent or reduce the risk of some genetic disorders by taking folic acid and prenatal vitamins, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and weight, avoiding alcohol, tobacco, and drugs, ensuring maternal health and vaccinations, and managing chronic illnesses before and during pregnancy. Consulting a genetic counselor and undergoing preconception screening can also help in making informed decisions, especially if there’s a family history of genetic conditions.
High-risk pregnancy conditions include advanced maternal age (over 35), chronic health conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease, lifestyle factors such as obesity, drug use, and smoking, multiple gestation (twins or more), and pregnancy-specific issues like gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, Rh incompatibility, and placental abnormalities.
You will likely have two to four ultrasounds during a healthy pregnancy, with one or two in the first trimester (dating and nuchal translucency scans) and one around 18-20 weeks for a detailed anatomy scan. The number of scans can increase with a high-risk pregnancy, multiple fetuses, or if your doctor wants to monitor the baby’s growth and development more closely.
Preeclampsia is high blood pressure and signs of liver or kidney damage that occur in women after the 20th week of pregnancy. While it is rare, preeclampsia also may occur in a woman after delivering her baby, most often within 48 hours. This is called postpartum preeclampsia.
Your first visit may include a full physical exam, including breast and pelvic exams, as well as some routine blood and urine tests. You will spend time talking to us about what to expect during your your first trimester and the rest of your pregnancy.
A high-risk pregnancy is a pregnancy that poses an increased risk of health problems for the mother, the baby, or both. These risks can stem from pre-existing medical conditions, factors that develop during pregnancy, or lifestyle choices. Examples include conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, or multiple births, as well as factors like advanced maternal age or a previous history of pregnancy complications.
It’s not uncommon for women with medical conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, or lupus to meet with a perinatologist before and during pregnancy to make a plan for a healthy pregnancy. Women who experience preterm labor, preeclampsia, or are expecting multiples will also meet with a fetal medicine specialist.
