    I guess it depends on were you go...i have about 4 sets of photos from different appointments..do you already know the gender? You can always ask your doctor.
  • It usually depends on your doctor i had one at 10, 20, & 35 weeks.
  • And have 9 pics from each and a cd with all the pics
  • He said its a girl, and I hope it is bc I'm not going to be to happy. Lol... I'm going to ask him when I go to my apt on the 18th.
  • It's all dependent on the facility and how often they do them. It never hurts to ask if you can have more. Hopefully, they're a place that will allow that. Some are very particular. Mine is cool. I had two by the time I was 18 weeks, and they said after that, I can schedule them whenever I want. I haven't scheduled my next one yet, but I might at 26 or 28 weeks.
  • Depends on ur dr and what insurance will cover....i have tricare so I only get u/s @ 10w & 20w.

    But we paid out of pocket for 3d and I plan on going again.
  • @angelsmommy see I got 3pics an I can't really tell what it is. I'm guessing ill have to pay for a 3d u/s
  • We did a 3d one at 30 weeks too. But if i were you i'd ask for sure. How far along are you? Some doctor order a growth study tgats what my 35 week ultrasound was. Its usually towards the end though.
  • 25wks an 2days....
  • At 27w 3d, I've just had 2, but I only have one set of print-outs. One of my U/S was an emergency situation, so I didn't get to even see that one. I have Medicaid and here, it covers one @ 10w, 18-20w, 28-32w and one at 34-36w...but because of the doctor that I chose to go to, I missed the first 2 sets, and my next one isn't scheduled until they do a Growth Study U/S at 35 weeks.
    On the set that I was given at my last appointment, which was just a typical U/S, the doctor circled where the baby's "boy parts" are, so that I wouldn't feel dumb when someone asked and I couldn't tell them...
    But if you're uncomfortable with the amount of U/S you have gotten, ask for more when you go; some doctors are really nice about it and are more than willing to "order" more scans, so that you can get a couple more copies.!
