How many scans do you have during the first trimester of pregnancy?

I am a 26 year old pregnant woman. I want to know how many scans do you have during the first trimester of pregnancy?

2 Answers

Usually one to confirm pregnancy. Next one is at 11 to 12 weeks for skin thickness of the neck.
Good luck.
Hello,

For patients without complications, we usually perform a scan between 11-13 weeks to establish dating and perform a nuchal screening test. Sometimes, we will perform them earlier if there is significant vaginal bleeding or other complications. 
I hope that this helps.

Warmest Regards,
