How soon or often will you all go for Ultrasound scan?

[Yun]

I had my first ultrasound at week 7 after testing positive with my home pregnancy kit. Then I did it again at week 8 bcoz at that point I was experiencing some bleeding.. N then follow up on week 10. Is my ultrasound scan too often? Will it do any harm to baby? Thank you in advance!!

I go every 6 weeks due to a possible complication. My doctors don't seem concerned, if a problem did arise I'd rather them see it sooner than later.

I lived in Asia and for first 12 weeks they scan every two weeks and all their children are fine there. No worries

I've had ultrasound every 1-2weeks from 6wks-17wks. I go for bieeekly ultrasounds till 30wks than start getting weekly ultrasounds. Theres no harm to baby unless they would keep the probe in one position ffor or a period of time. And only bcuz it can radiate heat.

I had US every 2 weeks from 8 weeks- 22 weeks, then weekly until delivery at 37 weeks with my boys. They are perfectly healthy. I refused the 6 week US as I feel it places too much stress in a heart that is just starting out (lost our second after seeing hb at 6 weeks).

I am 22 weeks and have had 5 ultrasounds already and am scheduled for another one on the 12th. I had one at 6wks, 13wks, 15wks, 17wks, 19wks, and my next at 23wks. So I guess that works out to every two weeks and baby is perfectly healthy so far. Mine have been for low fluid levels and an issue with the placenta but baby is great. I would think if there was any issues with doing so many ultrasounds the docs wouldn't recommend them..
